Description:

Twa Tongues, Aon Tír Amháin (Two Tongues, One Land) is a joint author-led event celebrating the creativity, history and continuing relevance of poetry in the Irish and Ulster-Scots languages through conversation, poetry and live performance.

The event will bring together two award-winning writers and poets – Darren Gibson and Proinsias Mac a’ Bhaird, one working in Irish and one in Ulster-Scots, to explore their personal journeys as poets, the reasons they chose to write creatively in these languages, and the people, places, and traditions that have influenced their work.

Booking is essential.
