Learn how to make St. Brigid's crosses and Bridóg dolls in this workshop with Sheena Malone.

The workshop is suitable for all age groups. For older participants, we will use rushes from which St. Brigid’s crosses have traditionally been made for generations. The younger participants will make their crosses from from colourful pipe-cleaners which are more manageable for smaller fingers.

All materials (rushes, pipe-cleaners, elastic bands) will be provided by the artist.

All children attending this workshop must be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
