Inspired by the spirit of John O’Donohue’s Anam Ċara, this immersive workshop invites children to explore their connection to nature, folklore, music and movement.
Guided by Chantal McCormick (Fidget Feet Aerial Dance) and Thomas Johnston (Ceol Connected), two dynamic artist-facilitators from the worlds of aerial dance, music and gig theatre, this workshop blends Celtic mythology, song, rhythm and the natural world into a joyful exploration of creativity and belonging. Through singing, dancing, listening and imagining, children will discover the ancient wisdom of the land and the soul in a joyful exploration of creativity and belonging.
Part of this workshop will take place outdoors so please come prepared for all weathers!
