Consulate General of Ireland Newsletter, 7 August 2020
News
07 August 2020In our August newsletter, we reflect on the legacy of the primary architect for peace on our island, John Hume, after his passing. John and Pat Hume visited the Bay Area many times over the years and, given the personal connection that many living here have to the Hume family, we have opened a virtual book of condolences.
We also have news of a creative collaboration we are undertaking with another giant- Van Morrison, one of the all-time greatest Irish musicians. We profile friends and groups from as far afield as Los Angeles and Alaska and are happy to share some news regarding a very special Arizonan ‘Rose of Tralee’ event in the Copper State!
