The Boston Beara Society


The Society was established in 1995 to promote and celebrate the history, art and music of the Beara Peninsula
and the achievements of its people in Ireland and the USA.
The Boston Beara Society has adapted as it's logo an image of the Cailleach Bheara, the mythological figure
who's petrified remains may still be seen in Kilcatherine in the Parish of Eyeries

About this time every year you hear from us about our upcoming event.
        Usually there is a reference to the cold weather and an assurance that spring is nigh.
You may think we are giving you false hope in mid winter.        But have we been wrong yet?
Has April’s Boston Beara Society ever failed to bring a warming sun and an extra kick in your step?

Well this April 18th will again mark the moment when we shake off old man winter to welcome spring.
We will celebrate our survival with song and dance, food and drink, old friends and new, as we should.

              With the Andy Healy dance band, traditional stepdancers, a humorous talk by former Beara  resident and
long time exponent of Irish culture on local radio, John Curran, you should have time to visit with old friends and new.

Sunday April 18th. Florian Hall, Hallet St. Dorchester, MA. 2:00 pm. to 7:00pm. Tickets $50 include dinner.

This year we ask that you make a special effort to order tickets in advance. Your ticket will always be 
good the following year if for some reason you cannot make it last minute.

Following our successful visit to Butte Montana this past August some have suggested we run a trip to Ireland in summer 2011.    
If this is of interest to you contact us and we will plan accordingly.
 
                  Also, you should know the committee donates to various educational, cultural and charitable causes
throughout the year in proportion to your support in attending the Boston Beara Society’s event
                         .
