Flora+Fauna=Fun!

  • Workshop

This interactive workshop for local young people will explore our native wildlife in preserved plant and animal form through creative activities! 

Meet Terry the Chocolate Orange Fox, Sissy the Swan, Rusty & Ruddy the pair of red squirrels and well as Bertie the bullfinch and a host of further critters that share our spaces with us but as the name suggest are ‘wild’ and so rarely seen up close, hence why these taxidermized specimens which allow to touch and regard them at length are so special! 

Engage with our local flora through making rubbings and clay imprints of preserved plants which make lovely wall hangings or gifts! Engage with the wonderful natural heritage of Tulsk, Roscommon and the extended region at a location that holds this value to heart & treat yourself to some lunch in the Rathcroghan cafe as part of the event!
Age: 5-12yrs
