Irish Arts Week 2024

Our celebration of 15 years of cultural enrichment and community through the Celtic Junction’s Irish Arts Weeks has come to a close. We are grateful to everyone who joined us from April 12th to April 30th to explore and celebrate Irish culture.

Stay tuned in the coming weeks as we share photos, videos, and recordings of webinars from the festival. Whether you joined us in person or virtually, there will be plenty to enjoy and discover.

Keep an eye on our website and social media channels for updates, and thank you once again for making Irish Arts Weeks 2024 a wonderful experience. We look forward to seeing you at future events!

Resident Partners

Since its founding, CJAC has collaborated with three organizations who reside within The Celtic Junction building: O'Shea Irish Dance, Center for Irish Music, and Irish Fair of Minnesota. CJAC would not be the same without their partnership and collaboration!
