On loan from Donegal County Museum, Ireland, Cuairt Chaluim Chille // Touring St Columba is on show for the first time in Scotland. The year-long tour was launched in Campbeltown on the 9th of June, 2023, the Feast Day of St Columba. 

Cuairt Chaluim Chille // Touring St Columba is created by Culture, Heritage and Arts Assembly, Argyll and Isles (CHARTS), supported by Argyll and Bute Council. This bold partnership between Argyll and Ireland is made possible with joint support from Bòrd na Gàidhlig and Foras na Gaeilge to further build relationships between Gaelic speakers in Ireland and Scotland grown during the themed year Colmcille 1500. This CHARTS project will include workshops and events with opportunities for Irish and Scots Gaelic artists and cultural practitioners to participate.
