Ephemera - Cairde's Closing Procession

🔥 Don’t miss the spectacular grand finale of this year’s Cairde Sligo Arts Festival! Join us for Ephemera, a breathtaking outdoor procession and performance by the newly formed company, VolkiDána. A powerful goddess awakens as four tribes journey through Sligo in a fire-lit procession that weaves aerial dance, ritual and community engagement into a stirring finale. Created by Bridget Ní Dhuinn and Polina Shapkina, Ephemera involves community participation from the Congolese Community, Sligo Youth Theatre, Foróige and local Men’s and Queer Sheds. The Community Engagement was facilitated by Hannah Dobson & Rummy McCullagh of Allta Creations.
