Wild Irish is a cultural revival project centred on the Irish language. Our mission is the similtaneous reclamation and growth of our native Irish language and indigenous traditions. We create experiences and events within which people encounter the Irish language in an experiential way.
We believe that the language and ancestral knowledge are inextricably linked, and one's revival precipitates the other.
Rooted in the reclamation of Irish identity through the safekeeping of Irish language, culture and ancient practical skills, we curate events, workshops and retreats to bring people in contact with their heritage.

Cultúr ~ Culture
The Irish language has been the tús pointe, the beginning point, from which the rest has grown. It is an element of all of what we do. It is the language of instruction and prayer.
