We are excited to announce Patricia Scanlan, author of The City Girl trilogy, A Time For Friends, and many other novels, as the keynote speaker for The Gathering 2022.
As one Ireland’s best-known and most popular authors, we can’t wait to hear about Patricia’s reflections on writing and ageing.
In our first in-person Gathering since 2019, we’re bringing the Bealtaine community of organisers, artists, partners and supporters to look at different issues of diversity as they relate to older age. We’re looking forward to sharing our full line-up which includes presentations on gender balance in the arts, older LGBTQIA+ communities, intergenerational projects and the experiences of older artists.
The Gathering 2022 takes place in Project Arts Centre on Tuesday November 15th from 10am – 5pm.
Tickets are €10 and go on sale October 4th.
