Pobal Chluian Tarbh is an Irish volunteer community which has been in existence since 1972 and aims to “build a community language “. They have held numerous events over the past two decades aimed at young and older people. Since 1980 they have run Clontarf Poetry Festival – a community week, involving other community organisations.Pobal Chluian Tarbh are closely linked with community groups – ”Briathar Beo” – holding language classes weekly for the last sixteen years ; Comhaltas – a group of traditional Irish musicians doing Macaronic singing; and Near FM – a community radio station, where we occasionally participate in different programs.Pobal Chluian Tarbh is very proud of the Irish authors from the area .A venture is underway to create a list of authors and have their lives and works put to paper.In past generations, a large number of people in Clontarf knew Irish, and it is Pobal Chluian Tarbh ’s goal to create opportunities to speak the language.
