Cashel Arts Festival is taking place from Thursday, September 12, to Sunday, September 15, with something to suit everyone.
Highlights of the festival include a night of music and comedy with Garron Noone, the eight annual Bolton Lecture with Gary Younge and Irish folk singer and songwriter Lisa Hannigan.
The organisers ask you to join them for this year’s festival and visual arts programme opening with Dr Martin Worthington, Al-Maktoum Associate Professor in Middle Eastern Studies at Trinity College Dublin.
Curator, art historian and writer Catherine Marshall will launch their Visual Arts Programme and give a short introduction to this year’s visual artists, Cornelius Browne and Helen Comerford.
Their work will be on display in The Chapter House during the festival.
Light refreshments will be served.
The Opening will be followed by Gilgamesh.
The show will be presented by a live narrator and musician.
Characters and moments of the story will appear and merge as shadows on a screen and draw the audience into the world of Gilgamesh.
Dr Worthington will give an expert introduction detailing background information on Gilgamesh, one of the world’s oldest known stories.
Tickets are available to book at Brú Ború on 062 61122.
