Join us for an evening with Father Ray Kelly- a name you may recognize from Britain's got Talent. The beautiful Sanctuary at West Art will be the perfect setting for this show, an intimate evening of songs and stories with the best singing priest you've ever heard! Grab your tickets HERE.

Fr. Ray is a Catholic priest known for his singing interpretation of popular songs. He became famous in 2014 after a video of him singing Leonard Cohen’s song “Hallelujah” while officiating at a couple’s wedding, went viral on YouTube. Now in 2024, it has received more than 91 million hits. In 2015 he signed a recording deal with Universal Music for 2 albums and has since recorded as an Independent artist with multiple indie labels. In 2018 Fr. Ray auditioned for the 12th series of Britain’s Got Talent, singing “Everybody Hurts” by R.E.M. He made it to the live shows and Simon’s claim as his “favorite audition ever”! Fr Ray has also participated in Ireland’s Dancing With The Stars.

Still an active parish priest in Ireland and a member of Saint Patrick’s Society for the Foreign Missions, he makes time to travel abroad sharing his music ministry all over the world.
