beside Lough Gara and near Ballymote. Lough Gara is an excellent fishing spot!
The Ceoláras Coleman centre in Gurteen houses a theatre, a large audio visual display on south Sligo, its music and the life of Michael Coleman.
There is also a complex of buildings a few miles west of Gurteen which is the Coleman Heritage Centre. This consists of a replica of the original Coleman home, and also a traditional style forge.
A music archive, managed by Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann, forms an important part of the project.
The primary focus of the centre is to promote the living tradition.
