Come and explore the Royal Irish Academy – a hidden Georgian gem tucked away on Dawson Street – this Culture Night. During your visit, you will see beautiful spaces such as the RIA Library Reading Room, where the earliest example of Irish writing, the 6th century Cathach, will be on display, and the Meeting Room, where the Academy’s major meetings, elections and lectures take place. During the evening, visitors will also have a chance to learn about the Academy’s research programmes and to browse the pop-up bookshop. There will be an activity sheet for young visitors to help them discover the best-kept secrets in 19 Dawson Street!

Féach thart ar Acadamh Ríoga na hÉireann – seoid Sheoirsiach atá i bhfolach suite ar Shráid Dásain. Le linn do chuairte, feicfidh tú spásanna áille ar nós an Seomra Léitheoireachta, áit ina mbeidh An Cathach, an sampla is luaithe de scríbhneoireacht na hÉireann ón 6ú haois ar taispeáint; agus an Seomra Cruinnithe, áit ina dtarlíonn mórchruinnithe, toghcháin agus léachtaí an Acadaimh. I rith an tráthnóna, is féidir le cuairteoirí bualadh leis an bhfoireann taobh thiar de chláir thaighde an Acadaimh, agus súil a chaitheamh ar an siopa leabhair aníos. Beidh leathanach gníomhaíochtaí ann do chuairteoirí óga a chuideoidh leo fáil amach faoi dhúrúin Uimhir a 19 Sráid Dhásain!
