Welcome to the new Gaelic arts portal.

We hope to provide a place where you can explore the Gaelic arts community and find out more about exciting project, developments and opportunities.

We aim to bring together as much of the best of the Gaelic arts in one place - so you can see what's on, when and where, read the latest news and explore behind the scenes.

But we don't want to repeat what's already out there - so much of the portal will be dedicated to pointing you in the right direction - whether you're an artist, an audience member, a learner or someone working in the Gaelic arts.

We'd also like to take on your thoughts and views as much as possible and showcase your work. So please, please feel free to get in touch with any ideas for the website.
