Irish Week is all around us …today in Sherman Oaks
It's been alive in our pubs (Rockin Reilly's), at The Mayflower Club (Celtic Cultural Center), and at the Church of the Chimes today at their annual Golden West Festival!
There is a hubbub afoot and there is dancing, there are presentations and booths by locals, emigres, and students in Gaelic Tag, and popup events.
Pauric Dolan will be featured midday playing fiddle and flute at the Golden West Festival in Sherman Oaks. At midday, Saturday October 21st, be ready at the stage at 12:30-1pm to shake your feet and open your ears. Traditional music provided by Mr. Pauraig Seosamh Mhurie Ui Dhubhshlain (Pauric is a pseudonym for those faint of heart at speaking his mother tongue.) Announced by Bo Lebo, Director of New Education Options.
The gentleman musician is a father, founder, and instigator of frolic and of deep poetic musing.
