Bringing Irish Folklore to Life

Workshop

Children from Forward Steps after schools “Little Steps” will take part in four workshops led by Little Gem Puppets. The children will design and create their own puppets inspired by Irish Folklore working together to create a film.

On the day of Cruinniú na nÓg, there will be a premiere showing of the short film showcasing the childrens work. After the premiere, enjoy a beautiful animated film by Cartoon Saloon, “The Secret of Kells”, bringing Irish Stories and artistry to the screen. Don’t miss the magic of imagination, Culture and Cinema.

To book your place to view the premiere of the childrens work and the film of “The Book of Kells”, please ring Forward Steps on059-9152776. Adults must stay with children during the event.
