Irish Arts Center Book Day

Literature is central to Ireland's history and culture, and this event celebrates the country's literary heritage. This year's Book Day on Tuesday, March 17, honors voices from the Irish and Irish American literary heritages. As always, the Center and its sponsors, partners and supporters—Culture Ireland, the Emigrant Support Programme, the Adrian Brinkerhoff Poetry Foundation, the Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick, New York, and The H. W. Wilson Foundation—will hand out thousands of free books across all five boroughs. Events start at 8am and last until the books run out. find out exactly where right here.
