Free to visit
We welcome you to Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again for an exploration of Heaney’s friends and influences and how they inspired his writing.

This June we have a new and engaging tour at Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again. Creativity is rarely found in isolation. It is found through collaborations and connections with your peers or through the study and admiration of those who came before. From familiar favourites like Yeats and Joyce to potentially new acquaintances such as Czesław Miłosz and Joseph Brodsky, uncover Heaney’s creative relationships, both on his native soil and abroad, to discover how they shaped his poetic imagination.
