2010 Schedule

We are looking forward to seeing you at our 4th Annual Young Irish Musician's Weekend this June!

The Young Irish Musicians Weekend is unique across all of North America in its focus on handing down the tradition of Irish music to children and youth. However, since we know that many adults also share a passion for Irish music and enjoy learning from the masters, there is a wide choice of course offerings and lectures for adults on Saturday and Sunday. A detailed list of the adult workshops can be found on the programs/prices page and the registration page. Keep checking back for additions to the adult workshop offerings.
