May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Festival of Snow Immersion Week 2022
As the only recognized Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking area) outside of Ireland, the North American Gaeltacht is inviting you to our second virtual Festival of Snow Immersion Week in February 2022.
Over the course of five days, experienced teachers will offer daily language classes for all levels. As well, a variety of cultural workshops will be offered, giving students the chance to practice their language skills outside the classroom. It is our goal that every learner will be at ease practicing and speaking Irish in a relaxed atmosphere.
We are offering a unique opportunity for immersive learning with classes and a workshop each day through video chat. The Festival of Snow is the perfect opportunity to have a Gaeltacht experience from wherever you are!
