Seán Ó Muireagáin: Údar faoi Agallamh/Seán Ó Muireagáin: Interview with the Author

File, údar, scéalaí agus amhránaí! Is fear ildánach é an Feirsteach Seán Ó Muireagáin. Beidh sé faoi agallamh ag Frainc Mac Cionnaith, ag caint ar a shaothar féin, saothar a chuaigh i bhfeidhm air, ceol, seanchas agus tuilleadh.

Fuair Seán duais speisialta ag Oireachtas na Samhna 2018 agus i 2019 cuireadh a leabhar, ‘Gaire in Éag’, i gcló. Is as Baile Uí Mhurchú é Seán ó dhúchas, agus bhí sé ar na múinteoirí ceannródaíocha a sheas an fód ag Bunscoil Bheanna Boirche, Caisleán Uidhilín, nuair a céadbhunaíodh an scoil. Tá gliondar orainn go mbeidh Seán ar ais chun tacú linn in athuair. Is imeacht trí mheán na Gaeilge atá ann ach beidh fáilte, mar is gnáth, roimh fhoghlaimeoirí.

Poet, author and singer, the Belfast man, Seán Ó Muireagáin, is multi-talented. He will be interviewed by Frainc Mac Cionnaith, discussing his own work, writing which has influenced him, music and more.

Seán won an special award in the 2018 Oireachtas literary festival and his book Gáire in Éag (A Dying Laugh) was published in 2019. Seán is from Ballymurphy originally and he was one of the first teachers to work in Castlewellan’s Irish language immersion primary school, Bunscoil Bheanna Boirche. We’re delighted to have Seán back supporting us once again. This is an Irish language event, learners are always welcome.
