Crafting Workshops Inspired by Storytelling

Workshop

Embark on a creative journey and bring a story to life! During these workshops, we will collectively create ‘A Story Sack’. You will create colourful artwork, based on your unique interpretation of a story’s characters. Together, we will craft charming 3D figures that represent each character from the chosen story. The characters will be part of ‘A Story Sack’ that will be used in storytelling sessions in Monaghan County Libraries.

A special storytelling session, using the characters made by the project participants, will take place on Cruinniú Day (Saturday, 7th June) in Castleblayney Library. Details to be confirmed.

This project is suitable for young people age 11 to 13 years.

Spaces are limited and booking is required. To book contact Castleblayney Library on 042 9740281 or email castleblayneylibrary@monaghancoco.ie

This project is facilitated by Monaghan based creative Jacinta Caraher in collaboration with Castleblayney Library.
