Sive - TradFest 2024
https://tradfest.com/events/sive/
Open call for artists and musicians to create art and music inspired by #StBrigid for the #Herstory Light Shows on 31st Jan & 1st Feb 2024.
This year’s theme is the Old Irish saying: "There’s room for everyone under Brigid’s cloak.”
In these divisive times, St. Brigid calls us to remember our true humanity, bringing a message of inclusion, harmony, and healing.
