The Adult Learners’ Festival is a nationwide celebration of adult learning coordinated by AONTAS, the National Adult Learning Organisation.
Over previous years the Festival has become a firm fixture on the adult learning calendar with thousands of events taking place nationwide, including: information sessions, taster workshops, sample lectures and small gatherings of people who love to learn.
The Festival takes place in early March. It aims to encourage Irish adults to explore the local learning options available to them through a week-long programme of events and workshops throughout the country.
The Aim of the Adult Learners’ Festival:
- To celebrate adult learning and the achievements of adult learners
- To promote the work of further, adult and community education
- To showcase the important work of adult learning providers
- To ensure that the adult learner is at the centre of adult learning policy
