Working with a group of Wexford-based artists from different disciplines, Aistear (Odyssey, Progression, Journey) will focus on developing the group’s understanding of the Irish language in relation to their artform. Through a series of workshops led by other Irish speaking artists, the group will learn how to incorporate different aspects of the language into their performances and public presentations. They will explore foundational vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, sentence structure and idiomatic expression. The workshops will culminate in a public performance at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann 2025, where the group will share what they have learned.

Aistear is one of Creative Ireland Wexford’s six Irish Language projects for 2025, meeting our strategic priority to ‘promote the love and use of the Irish language in our community’.
