In Praise Of Féis an Eilein –Fichead Bliadhna
Dr Richard MacKinnon Director of the
Center for Cape Breton Studies at CBU
“Féis an Eilein is a great example of
how culture, sustainability and community
economic development go hand in
hand.”
Heather Sparling Associate Professor of
Ethnomusicology and Chair of the
Department of Heritage & Culture
“This DVD will be an invaluable
resource to educators teaching Cape
Breton traditional arts, Celtic studies, or
Gaelic language and culture."
Lewis MacKinnon Executive Director,
Gaelic Affairs at the Department of
Communities, Culture and Heritage
“It is both fitting and appropriate that Féis an Eilein be the first Gaelic organization
to make a DVD of this kind,
helping to foster a further sense of pride
within the Gaelic Community and sharing
with others the wellspring that is
Gaelic Nova Scotia.” |
