Words for Mother E-ART-H – Poetry and Pottery

Monday 2 June

1pm (duration1h)

Anita’s, Mountshannon

Free with wristband

wheelchair accessible

What if instead of constantly looking to the Earth for resources we looked to it for inspiration to create ART and gave a little back to our communities?

With thanks to the Creative Ireland Programme,  Mountshannon Arts ran three workshops in April with Niamh Twomey, Kerri Ní Dochartaigh and Eibhlín Dunne.

This event is the culmination of these workshops with the participants partaking in a poetry reading and display of pottery.

The vision for Creative Ireland Clare is to “embed culture and creativity into the activities, sustainability and growth of our communities”.
