Clifden Arts Week
2008 will mark 31 years of the annual arts festival in the Connermara captial of Clifden, which has grown from a small community event in to one with a packed programme of events playing to an international audience.
With music, song, dance, drama, comedy, poetry, readings and concerts as well as an always imaginative and strong children's programme, the festival has something for everyone. Still very much a community effort, events and exhibitions take place in just about every available space.
Full details of the 2008 programme have yet to be announced, but there will be an appearance by comedian Kevin McAleer, music from The West Awake and poet and literary critic Bernard O'Donoghue will be in attendance.
