March is Irish-American Heritage Month
The Council, through an order offered by Councilor Murphy and co-sponsored by Councilors Flynn and FitzGerald, has proclaimed March 2026 as Irish-American Heritage Month.
Today, Irish-Americans continue to enrich Boston’s cultural life through contributions to arts, music, literary traditions, universities, businesses, and community organizations. In recognition of this legacy, the Council directed the Property Management Department to raise the Irish flag on March 4, 2026, honoring the community’s enduring impact on the city.
