An Open Door for Bealtaine is an informal musical gathering presented by 49 North Street in association with MusicAlive and the Skibbereen Family Resource Centre.

The guest artist will be Ger Wolfe, the well-known singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who has been ‘creating carefully crafted vignettes of song’ (Irish Times) for many years.

49 North Street is a dedicated creativity and wellness space in Skibbereen led by Cork Mental Health Services which serves communities throughout West Cork.

Ger Wolfe has been leading bilingual music sessions at 49 North Street over the past year as part of the Fite Fuaite Pop Up Gaeltacht. An Open Door will feature songs in English and Irish.
