Ceòl is Craic is a Glasgow-based Gaelic arts organisation which promotes Gaelic language, culture and creativity through a programme of music events, film screenings and participatory activities. We support artists to create and present new work, provide platforms for emerging talent, and engage diverse audiences in accessible and inclusive settings. Our work includes live performances, collaborative projects, workshops and community engagement activity, often developed in partnership with other cultural organisations. Through this programme, we aim to increase the visibility, relevance and use of Gaelic in contemporary urban contexts.
