A new bursary has been set up in honour of Clannad.
Údarás na Gaeltachta held a special event in Donegal last weekend in recognition of the platform the internationally recognised group have given the Irish language.
To celebrate that further, Údarás na Gaeltachta is awarding a bursary worth €30,000 to assist a Gaeltacht artist in developing new work through the medium of Irish.
The bursary will cover having another artist as a mentor, the hire or purchase of necessary equipment or attending an artists’ residency.
