An Leabhar Mór/Great Book of Gaelic brings together the work of more than two hundred poets, visual artists and calligraphers from Scotland and Ireland to create a major contemporary artwork in the form of a visual anthology.
The exhibition - part of the Cúirt International Festival of Literature - was launched in the Galway City Branch on Friday 21st April at 6.30 p.m. The exhibition is open until the 5th May.
The Exhibition is sponsored by Colmcille, the organisation charged with promoting the use of Irish and Scottish Gaelic languages and raising awareness of the shared Gaelic linguistic and cultural heritage of Ireland - north and south - and Scotland.
