St Brigid’s Cross

This Monday the first of February is St Brigid’s Day

There is a tradition to make a St Brigid’s Cross for the day.

This cross is thought to keep evil, fire and hunger from the home in which it is displayed.

See this video of Mairead Uí Riordáin making a St Brigit’s Cross.

Greetings from Béal Átha’n Ghaorthaidh!

As you may know, we in the Coiste Forbartha Béal Átha’n Ghaorthaidh are currently examining the feasibility of creating a new Museum of the Irish Language and Gaelic Revival which will be located here in Ballingeary, Co Cork. The new museum will be located in the historic building that once housed the first Coláiste na Mumhan over a hundred years ago.   We’d really like your thoughts on our proposal and have prepared a short survey which can be found here, available both as Gaeilge and in English:

Irish https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MSQGWLL?lang=ga

The survey is completely confidential and is being managed by our consultants Mirador Media.

Could I ask you please to take the survey as your input will really help us!  There are just 14 questions so it won’t take long! The survey will be live for some two weeks until 12 February.

 Many thanks!
