Killarney singer-songwriter Grace Foley is launching a new monthly storytelling and interview event at Anam Arts and Cultural Centre on Friday, August 22.

Called Soul Talks Live, the series will feature a different guest each month answering a set of questions on life, creativity and memories, with the arts at the core of each conversation.
The nights will be unscripted and audience members can expect humour, honest reflection and unexpected moments.
The first guest will be Paul Rooney, founder of Muddy Souls. Paul is a nature-led guide and mental health advocate who uses outdoor experiences to help people reconnect with themselves. His work combines the restorative benefits of nature with practical tools for emotional wellbeing, drawing on his own life story to inspire resilience and self-discovery.
The Kerry Arts Office is supporting the first two events, with tickets priced at €5 and available on the door. Grace hopes the series will become a regular fixture and attract an audience looking for an evening of honest conversation and connection.
