Early Years: Interactive Family Music Workshop 25 - 26 Sep 2026

An interactive bilingual music workshop with Ríona Sally Hartman for children aged 2–4.

A music workshop for little ones and their grown ups featuring a mix of original songs in Irish and English, alongside much-loved children’s folk songs from around the world in a variety of languages.

From a playful Hungarian tune about poling down a river to a fun Scottish song about crows. There will be catchy songs, simple dances, and fun musical games and movement for both children and their grown ups.

You will leave with plenty of musical inspiration to keep the singing going at home.
