Culture Night at Áras an Uachtaráin

 

Friday 21 September 2018

Michael D. Higgins, PRESIDENT OF IRELAND, celebrated becoming the HHSI’s Patron this year by inviting us to be part of the Culture Night programme presented at Áras an Uachtaráin on Friday, 21st September. We were very honoured by his kind invitation.

Simon Chadwick gave illustrated presentations: The Early Irish Harp: From Emblem to Reality, followed by performances by singer, Eibhlís Ní Ríordáin, together with HHSI director, Siobhán Armstrong, playing a copy of the medieval Irish harp depicted in the President’s seal.
