Tartan Day on Ellis Island

[M. A. C. Newsome]

There were also entertainers throughout the day within the exhibition area itself, which really provided some great atmosphere (and helped to draw people in).

We had a harpist.


We had a folk trio.


The gentleman on the left above is Chris Lair, a very accomplished musician who entertained us greatly on the Uillian Pipes, and even played for some of the dancers.


And what tartan exhibition would be complete without a kilted, Gaelic singing, juggler! The school groups loved this guy!


That is all for now, but be on the lookout for more info from this event, including the introduction of a very special new tartan!
