The Irish are known for their spirituality and great faith from pre-Historic times to the present. One of Ireland’s artistic national treasures that is certainly worth a look is the finely illustrated 9th century Gospel manuscript: the Book of Kells... MANY THANKS to BBC Beer Company and Jameson Irish Whiskey for their support of the AOH Arts and Education Committee!!! |
