The Ballybunion Arts Festival 2024!
The festival runs from the 18th of July to the 21st and is packed with events and celebrations, so if you happen to be in the southwest of Ireland over that period then why not drop for an event that is set in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Their poetry competition honours the feminist and political activist, poet and writer Shahidah Janjua (1949 - 2020) who spent the last fifteen years of her life in Castlegregory. Below is an interview with her from 'The Green Flame' podcast which gives a lot more detail of her background than I could write here. So from the share button and with thanks ...
