Cruinniú ná nÓg – Free Children’s Creative Workshop

Lets create a biodiversity parade! In association with Cruinniú ná nÓg and Wexford County Council & Creative Ireland.  Hosted by the Presentation Arts Centre, this series of workshops will seek to encourage young people to get out and about by creating themed costumes for all the roller skaters, skateboarders, cyclists, wheelchair users & scooter enthusiasts in Enniscorthy.  Using the local environments inspiration, young people will learn how to make costumes and decorations for their wheels. Bees, dandelions, swans, trees, and bats will inspire young people to design and create costumes linked to the natural world around them. Young people will learn how to use upcycled materials from broken umbrellas through to cardboard boxes to make costumes, headpieces and streamers. Participants and their families will come together on Cruinniú na nÓg on the 11th June to share their designs in a fun parade in the Orchard Peace Park. Open workshops will be held on;May 21st for those aged 5-7 years and May 28th for those aged 8-12. Please bring a small snack and drink and wear old clothes as children will be working with a variety of materials in this workshop. Cruinniú na nÓg takes place on Saturday June 11th, 2022 and is delivered by Wexford County Council, in association with Creative Ireland
