IMPACT supports Palestinian cultural links

IMPACT is among the financial supporters of the Lajee cultural tour, which brings young Palestinian Dabka dancers from the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem to perform in Ireland. The tour comes to Dublin’s Liberty Hall on Sunday 13th April, where the dancers will perform in a programme featuring Donal Lunny, Paddy Glackin, Frances Black and other Irish musicians.

 

The tour has been supported to allow these young people to showcase their culture and raise awareness of life in a Palestinian refugee camp. There are also plans to perform in Cork, Limerick and Galway.

 

The 13th April Dublin event also features photography, film and Palestinian food from 6pm, with music and dance getting underway at 8pm.
