CRUINNIÚ na nÓg, the national day of free creative activity for children and young people, took place on Saturday with a programme of workshops and events.
Kerry’s Cruinniú na nÓg programme offered a wide range of free activities for young people on the day and there were loads of events around Tralee as part of the fun.
There was something for all ages and interests including dance, art and music workshops at Siamsa Tíre, youth theatre performances at the Dúchas, origami in Tralee Library, drumming and dance workshops in Shanakill Resource Centre and an exhibition of Junk Kouture outfits from Tralee Secondary School students at Kerry County Museum.
Cathaoirleach of Kerry County Council, Cllr John Francis Flynn remarked; “What a great day for children and young people to find something new and show us what they can do. Kerry County Council is delighted to partner with Creative Ireland on Cruinniú na nÓg and would like to especially thank all facilitators, artists, and organisers who make this day happen.” Scroll down for photos…
