There is freedom waiting for you, on the breezes of the sky and you ask, ‘What if I fall?’ Oh but my darling, what if you fly?
Enter an open-ended art and crafting space where you are invited to add your art to a series of collaborative installations, co-created by children from across Galway. You will make your unique mark on these large scale artworks that will grow over the course of the festival. The installations, built using eco-friendly materials and based on themes of birds, flight and migration, will transform the space over time, culminating in a temporary exhibition.
Families will work in small groups of children with their parent/guardian and schools will work collaboratively within their class group.
Sunday 20 October 14.00 to 16.30: Visit the gallery to see a temporary exhibition of the final creations and show off your work to friends and family.
