Stories, Shapes & Sketches: Celebrating Young Creators

Workshop

The Linenhall is hosting a big day of creative events!

Cruinniu naOg Art Sessions. (5 – 12 years).
Get hands on in our family art sessions designed to ignite imagination and delight. Inspired by global myths and folktales such as Bebok, Kraken & Fionn MacCool children will learn how to make moving paper statues and take home their wonderful new creations.

Origami for beginners (11- 18 years)
Join us as we transform a sheet of paper into a magical sculpture. We will explore shape, structure and cover basics of reading origami diagrams. Origami is not only art, but engineering and mathematics as well as the ability to take the most humble material and breath life into it.

Sketch Tour (Ages 16 -24 years) – “Two Singers One Song”
Join us for a relaxed sketching session in Two Singers One Song, an exhibition of sculpture, painting and drawing. Open to ages 16+, this art gallery tour invites you to look closely, respond creatively, and explore ideas through quick sketches rather than finished work.
