About the event
Join us for HEARTS: Irish Connections on March 18th, 2023, a free community event, highlighting local Irish connections presenting, history, music, and dance at Cedar Grove and the Hugh Torance House and Store open for tours, beer, wine, snacks, gifts, and more.
For many with Scots-Irish ancestry, the real story begins in Ireland in the early 18th century. Come learn more from guest speaker, Tabitha Wood, adjunct professor of history at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, who will share what was happening on the Emerald Isle before Hugh got on the ship to America along with tens of thousands of others.
Irish Connections also features the Connick Irish dancers for two thrilling sets, and we’re very excited to welcome Davey Matias and Andi Hearn as our Irish-imbued musical talent. Free to the community, advance tickets recommended. Thank you HEARTS Circle members for your support in making these events possible. If you haven't joined yet, please consider joining today!
