St. Patrick’s Day & Celebrate Irish Heritage Continues at NSU’s Library, Mar. 19

March is Irish-American Heritage Month, so come out and celebrate at NSU’s 4th Annual Irish Film Festival. The festival screenings will take place in the Carl DeSantis Building’s Knight Auditorium at NSU.

NSU’s Alvin Sherman Library and the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences have partnered to present the festival, which will feature the following films:

The Yellow Bittern: The Life and Times of Liam Clancy
on Saturday, Mar. 19 from 4 to 6 p.m.

A new feature documentary from Alan Gilsenan, The Yellow Bittern: The Life and Times of Liam Clancy is a revealing and surprising portrait of the last surviving member of The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem – the man that Bob Dylan called “just the best ballad singer I’d ever heard in my whole life.”

Additional Irish Heritage activities taking place at the library include:

  • Culture Vultures Present: The Great Hunger
    on Sunday, Mar. 20 from 2 to 4 p.m.

Marie Smith is known in South Florida as “the Irish famine lady.” Her passion, the Irish Hunger of 1845-50, has led her to champion human rights for Northern Ireland as well as generate an understanding of The Great Hunger and its effect on American and world history.
