A craic-filled week is in the works for the largest summer school devoted to traditional Irish music and dance in North America with over forty top-class teaching artists on staff at the 30th annual Catskills Irish Arts Week.

Concerts and Ceilithe
While registered CIAW students can attend the evening concerts and ceilithe as part of their tuition, these events are also open to the general public and feature the multi-talented teaching staff of the Catskills in performance.
