Sean Scully - The Full Length Interview

The Inchicore Community Folklore Project

In 2022 Cuala carried out an Inchicore Community Folklore Project in collaboration with Core Youth Service and the Mercy School. With the help of local young people, we interviewed diverse members of the community in Inchicore and put together this series of mini podcasts discussing the various traditions, rituals, beliefs and ways of life. Through countless interviews and the work of our wonderful storytellers, we have created a series through which you the listener can get a glimpse of Inchicore. We hope you’ll enjoy it.
