Earagail Arts Festival 23rd July ‘Cosán Choilm Cille’

Aodh Mac Ruairí · July 12, 2021 ·

Cosán Choilm Cille ‘Art and Poetry Walk

Féile an Earagail

Earagail Arts Festival is a multidisiplinary summer festival which traditionally takes place in July throughout County Donegal along the Wild Atlantic Way on the north-west coast of Ireland.

As part of this year’s festival is ‘Cosan Choilm Cille – Art and Poetry Walk’ – a production by ‘The New Age Bards’ under the stewardship of Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhríde.

Come on a short walk with Scottish and Irish writers and artists to the top of Cnoc na Naomh. Along the way you can see their work and listen to their poems and stories. The work has been inspired by the folklore and mythology around Saint Colm Cille. It is a great chance to engage with the art and poetry in a relaxed outdoor setting with majestic views of the Donegal landscape from the Derryveagh Mountains around to Tory Island.

  • Deora Cholmcille

Artwork by the artists Seán Ó Flaithearta, Kim Sharkey, Derek Robertson and Norman Shaw. 

Newly composed writing by Meg Bateman, Rody Gorman, Daireana Ní Chinnéide and Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhríde.

A commemorative booklet with the words and images will be given to all those who take part.
