Bealtaine, Ireland’s annual festival to celebrate creativity as we age, takes place in venues around the country during May. The theme for the 2013 festival is ‘Grow Happy’. From dance to cinema, painting to theatre, Bealtaine aims to showcase the talents and creativity of both first-time and professional older artists.
Each year, Age & Opportunity invites local authorities, arts centres, libraries, Active Retirement groups, care settings, community groups and clubs, associations from every part of the country to run Bealtaine events that celebrate creativity as we age.
