International Dylan Thomas Day - 14th May

Just heard about International Dylan Thomas Day on 14th May. Maybe not a celebration of barddoniaeth Gymraeg, as sadly it seems his father “decided against raising Dylan and his older sister Nancy (1906-1953) to be Welsh-speakers, in the belief that English was the way to ‘get on’ in the world” (Dictionary of Welsh Biography), but certainly Cymreig.
For anyone interested, as well as in Cymru there are events also in Oxford, Cornwall, Bolton, London and New York
