Augusta Irish Retreat

At the Augusta Irish Retreat, you will choose from many dynamic sessions centered around learning Irish songs, traditions, and music. From your classrooms in the newly renovated Blackwater Falls Lodge, look out on some of the most idyllic scenery West Virginia offers. In this beautiful setting, you’ll be treated to learning sessions and authentic Irish music played by esteemed master artists. Celebrate the culture you love with good friends, great music, and incredible instructors.

The concept of this weekend was dreamed up by Augusta Irish Week founder Mick Moloney along with Emily Miller and Seth Young, just before Mick departed this world too soon. The vision is being carried forward brilliantly by Brenda Castles and the Augusta team. Come and join us as we continue to learn from Mick, a true pioneer of traditional arts education.
