Join us at the H.A.R.P. Museum in the Irish Cultural Center of the Mohawk Valley on Wednesday October 28 at 7:00 PM for tales and songs that celebrate Ireland’s Samhain or Halloween tradition.In this darkening time of year, Samhain arrives to herald autumn down its slide to winter, when the barrier between the living and the dead is thinnest. This evening we will present stories collected in 19th century rural Ireland. Stories and songs from a time when science wasn’t so sure of itself. Tales and tunes of banshees and fiends, musical fairies - not the nice kind - and of course ghosts. We endeavor here this evening to embrace the dark and shorten the night.
The name Amadán Dubh hails from Irish folklore and refers to the “dark fool” or “dark fairy”. A trickster fairy, Amadán Dubh is the "bringer of madness and oblivion…haunting the hills after sunset playing reed pipes to work his magic.”
