Cad é an chiall atá le Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin? (What does Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin mean?)

Tá an Chultúrlann ainmnithe in ómós do Sheán Ó Chanain a bhí ina ghníomhaire Gaeilge ar fud a shaoil agus a chaith tréimhse mar chathaoirleach ar bhord stiúrthóirí an Ghaelárais.

Cultúrlann Uí Chanáin is the Irish Language, Arts and Cultural Centre named after Seán Ó Canáin, a lifelong Irish language activist and former chairperson of An Gaeláras.
