Organisation

Elizabeth Zollinger has been a freelance artist since 1976 and has exhibited in Switzerland, Ireland, Scotland and Japan. Since 1977 Elizabeth has spent six months each year living and working on the Aran Islands and six months teaching art to adults and children in Zürich. As such, she is the perfect link between people interested in sampling authentic Celtic culture and the indigenous Islanders. Most of the holiday activities are guided by the Islanders themselves, who are anxious to share the wealth of their rich tradition and culture. Their openness and warm welcome will ensure an unforgettable stay on Inis Mór.

Project

Elizabeth Zollinger has created a series of week-long holidays to experience different aspects of the fascinating traditional life of the Aran Islands. With her own intimate knowledge of Inis Mór and its inhabitants and the assistance of the local people themselves, she will reveal the rich tapestry of culture that has existed here for thousands of years, through the music and dance, storytelling, the archaeology and natural history.

The holidays are designed with sensitivity and care to ensure an authentic and truly unforgettable experience, and while a variety of activities are programmed throughout each week, participants are free to take part to any level they desire.
