About the Nassau AOH Feis
Since 1972, the Ancient Order of Hibernians have present Nassau County with its annual Irish Feis and Festival. Held every year in September the Feis is a celebration of Irish culture and history. This year, the Feis will be held on Sept. 20th with its traditional dance and piping competitions, along with an Irish Marketplace and a special area for the kids.
About the AOH
The Ancient Order of Hibernians is a Catholic, Irish American Fraternal Organization founded in New York City 4 May,1836. The Order can trace its roots back to a parent organization, of the same name, which has existed in Ireland for over 300 years. However, while the organizations share a common thread, the North American A.O.H. is a separate and much larger organization.
