Endangered Animal Figurines

Workshop

Join a creative clay workshop this Cruinniú na nÓg, where children can explore nature, imagination and environmental care through hands‑on art. Participants will create clay models and sculptures inspired by animals and ecosystems affected by climate change in their local area, including birds, river life and surrounding landscapes.

As they design their own miniature worlds, children will be encouraged to talk about biodiversity, local heritage and the importance of conservation in an age‑appropriate and engaging way. This collaborative and creative session offers a fun opportunity to learn, share ideas and express care for our natural environment one clay creation at a time.

Free event, all materials and equipment provided.
