Having had some inquiries from parents regarding what workshops might be suitable for their children, the following are some suggestions (some are sold out)...
For Under 5's: Hokey Pokey Music is a perfect introduction to music & dance.
5-9 yrs. Boys & Girls: Mol an Óige is ideal. Trad Arts/crafts/Singing/Music/Dancing.
For those that play instruments (eg. tin whistle/fiddle/accordion etc): there are Workshops in all instruments.
For those that don't play an instrument the Sean Nós Dancing Workshop is ideal.
All on Saturday 3rd Feb. 10am-1pm (Singing workshops are on Sunday 4th)
The workshops for the Féile Sheain Mhic Phaidin - John McFadden Festival February Bank Holiday Weekend 2024 are available to purchase on EventBrite on http://johnmcfadden.org/ceardlann-workshops/
Something to suit everyone!!
