Ó Ghlúin go Glúin | An evening to celebrate the stories of Irish women

In 2025, Úna Gan A Gúna is delivering a one year project called ‘Ó Ghlúin Go Glúin’! Funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs Emigrant Support Programme, this project connects young women to their Irish elders to record and preserve their stories as oral history interviews. 

Join us at Coventry Irish Society on Monday 2 June to hear and recognise the stories of Irish women born in the twentieth century. Listening to snippets from the interviews and hearing from some of the volunteer interviewers, anyone with an interest in Irish, feminist, or oral history is encouraged to attend.

Entry is free, no booking necessary.

Monday 2 June 2025, 6.30-8.00pm.
