Our Next Meeting: 
Irish Story Telling & Music

 

Only members of the Irish Cultural Society know what a seanchai is because we know that Jim Hawkins, a favorite of us Irish Cultural Society members, will be delighting us at our next meeting. Humor and drama are Jim's material. We will listen and enjoy!

Jim will partner with his partner of forty years,
Gregg Ryan. Gregg is a multi-instrumentalist, gifted on the tin whistle, the banjo, the flute and bodhran, and more. We will be doubly entertained at our penultimate meeting by tow entertainers who have mastered the art of delighting Irish audiences like ours.


Join us on Wednesday, March 19th at the Garden City Public Library. The meeting begins at 7:00pm, and is free and open to the public.

PLEASE NOTE THE LOCATION CHANGE!
