On the second day of his visit to New York, the President visited the site of the future Irish Arts Center and attended a gala concert in support of the Irish Arts Center.
Gabriel Byrne and Liam Neeson were early supporters of the project to create a new venue for the Irish Arts Center.
For four decades, the Irish Arts Center in New York has provided a space to showcase Irish culture and heritage.
