Athy Comhaltas were in #AthyLib for musical games & activities, children got to 'meet the instruments' as youth members of Athy Comhaltas show children how the instruments work. Children got to share their creative sparks with fun activities, games, music (ukeleles), rhythm & word games!

That's probably quite variable? I've only occasionally experienced it. Usually in the same sessions where people would also look at you funny if you bring a cello along. Mostly I go to Comhaltas sessions though which seem much more welcoming.

Turas go dtí an Bhruseil
Trip to Brussels 🇮🇪 🇧🇪
Bhuail mé le cúigear cainteoir Gaeilge ann, an tseachtain seo! Tá Conradh na Gaeilge, Comhaltas agus CLG suite anseo. Níos Gaelaí ná na Gaeil iad féin?!
Met 5 Irish speakers this wk - lots of Irish organisations! More Irish than the Irish themselves?!

Cambridge Comhaltas Elastic Band's first ceilidh gig (I was calling; accordion skills not ready for public performance!) I survived teaching a load of KS1 children strip the willow when half of them are still bad at lefts and rights! Note to self: learn more dances with only forwards and backwards.

We had Kilteel Eadestown Comhaltas for #CultureNight in Newbridge library & the night was alive with the sound of "seisiún ceoil gaeilge".
We were also given a little snippet of the history of each instrument used.
Thanks you to all who joined us in celebrating Culture night.

This is why Folk England is so important! We also learn Irish trad music through the Comhaltas charity, they are soooo well organised and funded! I think we could learn a lot from them, I loved hearing @elizacarthy.bsky.social talk on that 2 years ago at the Cambridge Folk Festival.

Streets packed with comhaltas musicians and craic. Rumours that celeb musician had been busking and then played a pub so peeled off with fan-daughter to try finding him (again, in my dodgy version of the adventure). No joy getting close but great fun exploring all the little lanes and alleys.
