Crinniú na nÓg 2025 bookmaking workshops by SHC

Crinniú na nÓg 2025

Yesterday we participated once again in the wonderful Crinniú na nÓg – Irelands’s national day of creativity for children – with some busy and fun children’s bookmaking workshops in Foxford and Kiltimagh Libraries. Huge thanks are due from us to the workshop funders Creative Ireland and Mayo County Council, to Kiltimagh and Foxford Libraries, and to all the creative children that took part in both workshops – looking forward to next year already! It really is a fantastic thing to have such a special national event for children, with amazing events happening all across the country on that day each year.

Hands on History returns for Crinniú na nÓg 2024!

We’re delighted to be back in Mayo Libraries for the return of this year’s Crinniú na nÓg children’s festival on June 15th! We’ll be inviting children to learn about the Mayo pirate queen Gráinne Mhaol, and to design and decorate their own sword and shield! Places for the three workshops are limited, so book now through Ballyhaunis and Claremorris Libraries to secure your free place!
