It seems that Oct 18th was "National Harp Day " in Ireland.
It's our national symbol and it's on our Passport. I was lucky to catch a snippet of this concert in The Highlanes Gallery in Drogheda on that day. This talented young harpist is Jennifer Leahy. #harp #irishharp

Large Pride parade 🏳️🌈 in Cork City. Great to see people celebrating their diversity and gender acceptance in Ireland. We’ve come a long way from the dominance of repressive religion.
