The Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, Josepha Madigan T.D. presenting the five new cultural ambassadors with the pins to mark their appointment at a fantastic reception at government buildings. The new ambassadors are Shelly McNamara and Yvonne Farrell of Grafton architects and curators of 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale, musician and fiddle player Martin Hayes of "the Gloaming", Pultizer prize winning poet Paul Muldoon and Oscar nominated actor Ruth Negga.
A lovely initiative that highlights the importance of promoting Irish culture at home and abroad. Recognising cultural ambassadors in this way not only celebrates their work but also strengthens Ireland’s cultural presence globally. The presentation of the logo pins adds a nice symbolic touch to the role they play.
