November Irish History Courses (Starting Oct. 31)

The Irish Cultural Center has linked up with Irish historian, Sean Murphy, to introduce our community to live, weekly online Irish history courses. Sean presents two monthly topics, divided into four-week modules. On enrollment, participants will receive the Zoom link, a copy of each week’s PowerPoint presentation, and additional background materials. The courses may be taken as recordings if Thursday presents access difficulties for any reason. Participants also have a half hour one-on-one session with Sean to answer any questions on the course content.

The first topic is a general history of Ireland from ancient times to the present day. The course module for November 2024 is The Great Hunger/Famine – An Gorta Mór 1845–1852. Takes place on Thursdays, October 31, November 7, 14 & 21 from 7:30–9:00 pm.
