Sean-nos NorthWest



Sean-nós NorthWest celebrates and promotes three aspects of traditional Irish culture –
Sean-nós singing, Sean-nós dancing, and the Irish, Gaeilge language. These cultural treasures are incredibly rare to find anywhere outside of Ireland. We aim to sustain a vibrant community for these arts in the Pacific Northwest through an annual festival as well as workshops, classes, performances, and lecture
