Feis Culkin -- Lost and Found

We have a few items left behind at Feis Culkin that would love to find their way back to their owners: chairs, clothing, makeup... just a few of the items in the lost and found.

If you are missing anything, please contact our feis registrar at feisculkinreg@gmail.com to identify your item and see if we might have picked it up.

Thank you!
