  • On Thursday, December 6, at 7 p.m., Rutgers University professor Eileen Sullivan will speak on “Community in Print: Irish American Publishers and Readers.” Sadlier was one of several publishing houses owned by Irish Americans that began to sell books to immigrants and their children during the 19th century.

Crowley has been in the forefront of the Irish traditional scene for four decades, performing with many Irish music luminaries but also as a solo performer, accompanying himself on bouzouki, mandolin, and harmonica.
  • On Thursday, December 13, at 7 p.m., Ireland House celebrates Airneál na Nollag, an evening of traditional music and song with NYU students and local musicians, hosted by Irish language lecturer, Pádraig Ó Cearúill.
