Imagine an Irish winter evening filled with music, laughter, and stories passed down through generations. This concert celebrates the spirit of Turlough O’Carolan, the Celtic harper whose gift for melody made him one of Ireland’s most beloved composers. O’Carolan’s music alongside festive melodies of the season, blend toe-tapping dance rhythms with moments of quiet reflection. It’s the sound of Ireland at Christmastime: full of heart, tradition, and joy.

Artist Mary Foster completes the evening with her striking paintings and woodcuts, inspired by the hidden geometry and bold colors of the natural world. Her art, like Carolan’s music, captures fleeting moments and transforms them into something timeless. Irish tunes, holiday spirit and the glow of nature’s beauty. “Christmas O’Carolan” promises to leave you smiling well into the season.
