T\u00e1 t\u00edrdhreach, oidhreacht agus seantraidisi\u00fain Dh\u00fan na nGall le brath go l\u00e1idir ina cuid saothair.<\/p>\n

Margaret Rose Cunningham<\/strong> is a tapestry artist, weaver, singer and passionate advocate for the heritage and traditions of her native Gleann Cholm Cille. Creativity runs deeply through Margaret\u2019s family: her great-uncle Paddy McGettigan was a master weaver from Ardara, while knitting and textile skills were also passed down through generations of her family.<\/p>\n

Margaret was one of six artists selected for the Taip\u00e9is Gael programme<\/strong>, where she developed her skills in preparing and naturally dyeing wool, carding, spinning, tapestry design and weaving. Her work draws strongly on the landscape, heritage and traditional life of Donegal.<\/p>\n

Margaret is also well known to many of us within Donegal tourism and the Gaeltacht<\/strong> through her role as Manager of the Glencolmcille Folk Village<\/strong>. Her work there reflects the same passion evident in her tapestries, preserving and sharing local heritage, supporting her community and ensuring that the traditions and stories of the Gaeltacht continue to be experienced and enjoyed by visitors and locals alike.<\/p>\n

Most recently, Margaret’s tapestries were exhibited at An Gaileara\u00ed in Gaoth Dobhair as part of <\/strong>D\u00e9anta i nD\u00fan na nGall \/ Made in Donegal<\/b><\/em>, showcasing the work of Donegal artisans.<\/p>\n

We are delighted now to welcome our Gaeltacht and tourism friend from the other end of the county<\/strong> to Caif\u00e9 Theach Solais Fh\u00e1nada, where a selection of Margaret’s tapestries will be our next exhibition.\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
