Situated in the heart of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada, the Gaelic College of Celtic Arts and Crafts was founded in 1938 as a school devoted to the study and preservation of the Gaelic language, arts and culture. Students of all ages and abilities from around the world take courses at our Cape Breton campus, USA campus, and online. Our world-class instructors offer programs in Scottish traditional disciplines including Gaelic language and song, music, dance and crafts.


Cape Breton University and the Gaelic College of Celtic Arts and Crafts celebrated a 10-year partnership of embracing, exploring and expanding Celtic culture, research, music and language. The partnership, aimed at encouraging a closer working relationship between the two Island-based educational institutions, has spawned numerous tangible benefits over the decade including the online Gaelic series, Beul An Tobair 1 and II and current work towards a Gaelic Heritage Centre at the College.
