Irish Heritage Club's Irish Festival at the Seattle Center
Join Seattle's Irish community for a weekend of celebrating Irish heritage, culture and arts. In addition to my hand-knitted traditional Irish sweaters, knitting kits and patterns, and Irish knitting history, vendors include traditional instrument makers, Irish artists, and other handcrafts. Enjoy performances of traditional music and step-dancing, attend genealogy workshops, and see Irish films, exhibits, displays and more!
