Athenry, A Reason for Rhymes

Join us for a night of poetry in the beautiful surrounding of Athenry Arts & Heritage Centre Garden.  A candle lit outdoor, Covid proof evening of poetry with local poets’ reflections on life, love & place. 

The evening will culminate in the much-anticipated unveiling of the Town Poem, by Athenry's Poet Laureate, Elaine Feeney. 

Due to Covid, we would appreciate if attendents would book in advance. Fáilte cach.
