..a huge hit!
Audiences delighted for two weekends in
November.
"Once
in a while a new Irish play comes along that reveals something
you've been missing-usually without realizing it. The special
quality apparent in every line of this play is its
authenticity... there's no arguing that it comes unfiltered from
Irish country life." IRISHVOICE

You have reached the website of the

where you're from).
Located at
10-40 Jackson Avenue in Long Island City, and easily accessible from
every part of New York City and the tri-state area, we are truly a
center for everyone in the greater New York Irish community.
So

míle fáilte" (hundred thousand welcomes) here for you!
Among the many services offered by the Center are...
-
Information
Resource Center - referrals to the many agencies in the New
York area who provide specialized services, such as
immigration, legal, medical, and personal counseling, to
the Irish and non-Irish community - and THE
place for finding out about
Irish arts, entertainment and cultural
events in the New York area - where the "craic"
is very very good!
-
Helpline (1-877-ERIN-HELP)
with trained volunteers who are available 24x7 to help
immigrants who are suffering from homesickness and
depression, and for anyone who needs information about
services targeted towards the Irish community.
-
Weekly catered
lunches for senior
citizens, where they can meet old friends and new, and
partake in organized information sessions providing advice on healthy living and
enjoying their "golden years"
-
On-site

of Irish culture and values, who can help immigrants realize
their
true potential in the "land of opportunity".
-
An
internet
cafe, where you can stop in to surf the web and take
training classes, and an
"Irish Tea Room", where
you
can enjoy the finest selection of soft drinks and coffee/tea
in a convivial atmosphere.
-
A
central
gathering place, with easy access to transportation, for
cultural and fun activities, including old-time dancing,
Irish dancing, social functions and parties, concerts, "seisiúns"
(traditional Irish music), plays
and card nights ("25" is a big hit!), in the New York
tri-state area.
So whether you
living in the New York area, or if you're planning a trip to the
Big Apple and want to know what's going on in the Irish scene
