Portráidí na Scríbhneoirí Gaeilge is a multi-annual, multi-stage project. In the first stage of the project, the book and website based on the original archive of portraits has been made available to the public. In the second stage of the project, new additional portraits are being added to the collection on an annual basis, so that the archive of living Irish-language writers can be made as complete as possible over time. A series of eight portraits/eight new writers was launched at a special online occasion at facebook.com/portraidi , and the list for 2021 is as follows:

The panel comprising of Lára Ní Mhaoláin, Caoimhín Ó Peatáin, Máirín Seoighe, and Seán Ó Mainnín underlook the work this year in Stage 2 of the project.
