Ladies AOH "Embracing Our Heritage" program
The goal of the Embracing Our Heritage program is to promote Irish heritage and identity in the United States with a variety of productions, with topics ranging from Irish music, language, Irish History, and Irish American History. This program of events is free to participate in, and marketed to the LAOH membership and Irish diaspora with the assistance of the Emigrant Support Program.
The Embracing Our Heritage program will be offering events for the next several months. For Irish Heritage Month in March, the Ladies AOH will be hosting two lectures online: the Irish Miners Memorial in Leadville, Colorado, and the Baltimore Irish and the Building of the First American Railroad.
