✨ It’s a wrap on ReelFlamenco! 💃🎶

What an absolutely fantastic night at The Civic, Tallaght! Irish and flamenco dance, music and song came together in a celebration of heritage, collaboration and shared musicality.

A huge thank you to dancers Louise O’Sullivan and Juan Carlos Avecilla, all our wonderful musicians and singers from Ireland and Spain, and everyone who joined us and made the evening so special.

Our thanks also to the Red Line Book Festival, The Civic, and SDCC Libraries and Arts - it was a night to remember!

📸 For today, here are a few photo highlights from the night. There’s more to come, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

What a fantastic evening at @priory_market Priory Market! 📚✨

@JustineStafford_ and @FionnualaJay had the audience laughing throughout as they explored The Irish Art of It’ll Be Grand. From the many meanings of “I’m grand” to the sayings, stories and characters behind our belief that, whatever happens, things have a way of working themselves out, it was a funny, insightful and thoroughly entertaining conversation.

We were also delighted to bring Red Line Book Festival to Priory Market for the very first time, making it an extra special evening.

This morning’s event with authors Ruth Ennis @rurooie and Oran Doyle @doyle_oran was truly amazing! It was wonderful to hear about Ruth’s book Shorelines and Oran’s book Give Me ’Til Midnight, their journeys as authors, and the challenges they have faced along the way.

The secondary school students asked some fantastic and thought-provoking questions, making it an engaging and enjoyable session. Both Ruth and Oran are a real inspiration to aspiring writers, showing young people the power of storytelling and encouraging them to explore their own creativity. taken in The Civic by @redlinefest
