The Dinnseanchas Project

The Dinnseanchas Project is an evolving eco-arts project rooted in rural upland communities in the West of Ireland and inspired by the word ‘dinnseanchas’ meaning the stories a place is telling. Dinnseanchas was initiated by Hometree, the nature-restoration charity based in the Ennistymon who are working to establish and restore resilient habitats across temperate rainforest landscapes.

Supported by a Creative Ireland Climate Action Award in 2024, Dinnseanchas creates space for communities to explore more resilient futures by holding difficult conversations about climate change, biodiversity loss, and the social and economic pressures currently shaping rural life.

As part of an 2026 Arts Council funded tour, Dinnseanchas is presenting a five-day programme in venues across Clare supported by glór and Clare Arts Office. At the heart of the residency is An Scioból in the glór foyer, an interactive exhibition of images, film and artefacts collected across the year-long programme that took place in upland locations from Gartan in Donegal, to the Borlin and Coomhla Valleys in West Cork. Radiating from An Scioból are the spokes of Dinnseanchas with further events happening around the county.
