Family Workshop: Create a Patchwork Cloak
Join artist Karen Peakin to celebrate St Brigid’s Festival by creating your own patchwork quilt inspired by Gerard Dillon’s Little Green Fields. Families are invited to explore paper weaving and collage to make individual patches, which will come together to form a communal ‘St Brigid’ cloak.
Take inspiration from the colour and composition of Dillon’s artwork, on display in the Irish Rooms, as you design your patch. Once complete, your patch will be added to the collective cloak!
