e island. Alongside a year-round programme of arts activity and performances, the organization has delivered several large-scale projects in its lifetime including the Festival IMBOLC, the traditional Irish music school An tAcadamh Cheoil, and the youth club Club Óige Setanta.

🎟 Tá an t-imeacht saor in aisce, agus ní gá áirithint a dhéanamh // The event is free and there is no need to book.

Ag toiseacht ó Chultúrlann Uí Chanáin ar 2pm, beidh an tsiúlóid faoi stiúir chomhordaitheoir an tionscadail, Mary Delargy. Beidh muid ag tabhairt cuairte ar dhornán suíomhanna chun scéalta oidhreacht shaibhir teangeolaíochta ár gcathrach a roinnt, roimh Halla Naomh Colm Cille a bhaint amach ar 3pm. Uaidh seo cluinfidh muid giota beag níos mó faoin tionscadal, agus críochnóidh muid le céilí faoi stiúir Mary McGuiggan!

Is buaicphoint é an t-imeacht seo de thionscadal sé mhí, agus ina dhiaidh sin beidh closturas féintreoraithe agus leabhrán ina bhfiosrófar an Ghaeilge i nDoire ar fáil ó Chultúrlann Uí Chanáin.

I measc na háiteanna a bheas muid ag tabhairt cuairt orthu tá:
· Halla na Cathrach - áit ina raibh an chéad Fheis Dhoire Cholmcille.
· Teach Richard Irvine Best - scolaire agus saineolaí.
· An Craobh - áit inar thosaigh Craobh Sheain Uí Dubhláin.
· Halla Naomh Colm Cille - bhíodh ranganna Ghaeilge ann nuair a thosaigh Conradh na Gaeilge i nDoire.

Tá muid buíoch de Chiste Oidhreachta an Chrannchuir as a dtacaíocht fhíorluachmhar i dtaca leis an tionscadal seo.

Starting from Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin at 2pm, the walk will be led by project coordinator, Mary Delargy. We'll be visiting a number of sites to share the stories of our city's rich linguistic heritage before arriving in Saint Columb’s Hall for 3pm. From there, we’ll hear a little bit about the project, and finish with a céilí led by Mary McGuiggan!

This event is the culmination of a six-month project, after which a self-guided audio tour and booklet exploring the history of the Irish language in Derry will be available from Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin.

Among the places we’ll visit are:
· The Guildhall - the place of the first Derry Feis.
· The house of the scholar Richard Irvine Best.
· An Craobh - the starting place of Craobh Sheain Uí Dubhláin of the Gaelic League.
· Saint Columb’s Hall - where the Irish classes were held when the Gaelic League started in Derry.

We are grateful to the Heritage Lottery Fund for their invaluable support in this project.

Tá trí aiste dhéag in Journey Work, a Creative Life a bhreathnaíonn ar shaol cruthaitheach ó thús deireadh. Seasann gach aiste as féin mar chaibidil, a chomhcheanglaíonn cuimhní cinn, cúrsaí leighis agus machnaimh ar chleachtas cruthaitheach agus teoiric. Tá scéalta taistil ann fite fuaite le dúshláin sláinte, éachtaí oibre agus machnaimh phearsanta. Is cás-staidéar é ar an dóigh a gcruthaíonn duine amháin saothair shamhlaíochta, agus é ag an am chéanna ag saothrú a bheatha agus ag cothú teaghlaigh.

Bí linn don ócáid ​​seolta seo a reáchtálfar go dátheangach, i nGaeilge agus i mBéarla.

Beidh Journey Work, a Creative Life le Dave Duggan ar fáil le ceannach ag an ócáid seolta.
___

Journey work, a creative life contains thirteen essays that explore the arc of a creative life. Each essay stands alone as a chapter, combining memoir, medical matters and reflections on creative practice and theory. It features travel stories interwoven with health challenges, work achievements and personal reflections. It is a case study of how one person creates works of imagination, while earning a living and maintaining a family, with all the ordinary ups and downs of such a life.

Join us for this launch event which will be conducted bilingually, in Irish and in English.

Journey Work, a Creative Life by Dave Duggan will also be available for purchase at the launch event.

Ag druidim lenár n-imeachtaí ag ceiliúradh Sheachtain Teanga na hUltaise ar an 23 Samhain, glac bomaite le haithne a chur ar na húdair thréitheacha a bheas linn.

Is údár é Stuart Patterson a scríobh go leor leabhair filíochta i mBearla agus in Albainis.. D’oibrigh sé mar scríobhneoir suite BBC Alba ó 2017 go 2018, agus bhain sé gradam amach mar “Scríobhneoir Albainise na Bliana” ag Duaiseanna na Teanga Albainise.

Tá leabhar úr Stuart 'Wheen: New agus Collected Scots Poems’ maoinithe ag Rialtas na hAlban mar chuid de Duaiseanna Fhoilsitheoireachta don Albainis agus foilsithe ag Líonra Pobail Albanais Uladh i mBéal Feirste.

Is bailiúchán é ‘Wheen’ ar 11 téama leathan ó ghrá go Covid, go himeachtaí domhanda agus níos faide anonn! As Ayrshire ó dhúchas dó, tá sé ina chónaí anois díreach in aice leis na Maoile i nDún Phris agus Gall-Ghaidhealaibh.

In the run up to our events celebrating Ulster Scots Language Week on the 23rd of November, take a moment and get to know the talented authors who will be joining us.

Author of several books of poetry in Scots and English and an acclaimed performer of his work, Stuart Paterson was BBC Scotland Poet in Residence 2017-18 and in the 2020 Scots Language Awards, he was publicly voted Scots Writer of the Year.

Stuart’s new book ‘Wheen: New and Collected Scots Poems’ is funded by one of the first ever Scottish Government Scots Language Publication awards and published by the Ulster Scots Community Network in Belfast. ‘Wheen’ is a wheen of 116 poems on 11 themes from love to Covid to world events to weather to people to Rabbie to beasties and beyond! A native of Ayrshire, he bides just over the Moyle in Dumfries and Galloway.
