On this Criunniu na nog 2025, artist Helen Barry and Hugh Lane Gallery are inviting families with a child or children under 6 with a physical disability to this practical, multi-sensory workshop.
Saturday 7 June 2025, 10.30am-12.30pm
This practical multi-sensory visual art workshop is designed by early years artist Helen Barry in collaboration with early years educator Audrey Fagan and inspired by the children attending the Central Remedial Clinic School.
This workshop invites the children and their families to explore the world of ‘Under The Sea’ through paint, colour, mark making, movement, music and sound. A specialised care team will support families to engage in all elements of the morning.
Engagements are FREE of charge. The engagements are aimed at children up to 6 years with a physical disability as their primary need. Siblings are welcome but parents need to be aware that the engagement will not focus on the sibling.
For further information and to book please contact Cleo Fagan on [email protected] or call +353 1 222 5553.
