Try a New Language this Culture Night
In celebration of Culture Night and European Day of Languages, language taster classes will be held on Friday 18 September at Europe House, Balfe Street, Dublin 2 and online on Friday 25 September. Languages Connect have teamed up once again with our partners in the European Commission to offer these 20 minute classes and give you a chance to try out a wide variety of languages – which ones will you choose?
With 20 different languages to choose from, there is something for everyone. Get ready for your next holiday, or greet neighbours and colleagues in their native language!
