Éigse CIM, A Gaela Event

Saturday, February 25th, 2012
5:00 - 10:30 p.m.
at The Celtic Junction

The Center for Irish Music and Kieran Folliard, Honorary Event Chair and local founder of 2 Gingers Whiskey, invite you to dress up in your finest, bring your friends and join us at The Celtic Junction for Éigse CIM, A Gaela Event.

Éigse [eg-shuh] is an Irish word used for festivals celebrating traditional Irish arts and culture. It is in this spirit that we gather for an evening to raise funds for The Center for Irish Music and the mission of handing down traditional Irish music.

This semi-formal event will be emceed by Máirtín de Cógáin, All-Ireland Storytelling Champion, singer and actor from County Cork. The evening includes two ticket options for attendees: come early to share a meal provided by Cara Irish Pubs, or join us later in the evening for the 2 Gingers Whiskey tasting, silent auction and concert featuring the stellar traditional Irish music of the CIM Instructors who boast recording, award winning, and world touring artists among their number.
