Irish Heritage Day We are sorry to announce that there will not be an Irish Heritage Day in 2009. This cultural event will be combined with Erin Feis in September to continue to support and promote Irish Culture. "To provide an opportunity for all who support Irish culture to experience Irish music, dance and song. To enjoy good fellowship, and expand our knowledge and appreciation of the Irish culture, as we pass it on to those who bury us." Bernie Gilhooly, November 6, 1995. |

Irish Heritage Day was founded as a day to "Pass it On". Bernie Gilhooly conceived the idea so that we might pass on our culture and heritage to next generations. Click here for information about the Bernard Gilhooly Award. Questions about Irish Heritage Day? Call 563-323-6426 |
