Cruinniú na nÓg 2026: MIX + MATCH SILKSCREEN PRINTING FOR AGES 6 - 16 YRS/ THIS SATURDAY 6TH JUNE

In celebration of Cruinniú na nÓg 2026, Limerick Printmakers will be welcoming children & young people aged 6 - 16 years to try their hand at silkscreen printmaking by mixing, matching & layering patterns, symbols, text, & shapes to create one-of-a-kind hand-printed screen prints to take home - the more colourful and random the better!
Printmaking offers both a creative outlet and provides an opportunity to bring people together to share ideas, or simply create collectively.

10.30AM - 11.30AM LIMERICK PRINTMAKERS QUIET HOUR  - PRE BOOKING ESSENTIAL
LP' Quiet Hour is ideal for any children & young people, who may, for any reason benefit from a calmer, less crowded environment, offering limited numbers with pre-booking essential, seating, no/ low artificial lighting, & no music.

12PM - 2PM LIMERICK PRINTMAKERS DROP IN OPEN SESSION - NO BOOKING REQUIRED!
LP' drop in session is open to all children aged 6 - 16 years, just call in!

Please note that guardians/ parents must wait nearby/ in the foyer while the kids are printing as there will be a constant flow of children & young people moving through the space.

As this event may become very busy, we are letting everyone know they may need to wait a few minutes before entry - our team will communicate any wait time when you arrive & seating will be provided.

All children will be encouraged to try printing multiple times when making their print
- we envision that the activity will take approx. 15 - 25 minutes

Last entry will be 1.45pm with the event finishing at 2pm sharp.

There may be an official Cruinniú na nÓg photographer during the event. For this reason, we will need guardians/ parents to sign permission slips with the understanding that photos featuring their children may be taken & potentially used in the promotion of Creative Ireland &/or Cruinniú na nÓg going forward.
