Seamus Heaney Exhibition at iBAM! 2022 Oct 15 & 16
This year, iBAM! is back at the Irish American Heritage Center from October 14 - 16 - a full weekend of the best in Irish culture. www.ibamchicago.com
The Consulate General of Ireland will host an exhibition of 15 banners dedicated to tracing the elements of Seamus Heaney's journey as a poet from the familiar fields of his homeplace in Mossbawn, Co. Derry to the wider world. Moving through Heaney's political engagement with civil and human rights, it ends with his legacy as a beloved public figure, a Nobel laureate who represented the best of the Irish people. Few poets have captured the ear and imagination of the world like Heaney. Listen now again.
Join us at iBAM! for this and many more cultural events over the weekend.
