While you're engaged in your plans for end of year giving, perhaps you'll keep the Irish Fair in your plans!
Unfortunately, earlier this year our longtime mascot met an untimely end in what can only be described as a tragic dry cleaning accident.
That’s why this Give to the Max Day, we’re asking for your help to raise $15,000 to design and build a brand-new mascot costume (these costumes are very expensive!).
We are very proud to announce that our good friends at Celtic Journeys will match up to $5,000 in donations, or $5,000 for cost of the mascot head, whichever is the greater! THANK YOU, Celtic Journeys!
If we are unable to raise the full $15,000 for a new mascot costume, we will purchase a new head and will redirect any additional donations to help subsidize our 2026 entertainment lineup. This ensures that every gift still directly enhances the Irish Fair experience and helps us bring top-quality music, dance, and cultural programming to our community next year.
Thank you for keeping us in mind!
