We’re delighted to celebrate Cruinniú na nÓg, Ireland’s national day of free creativity for young people. It’s a wonderful opportunity to explore art, imagination, film, and hands-on making in a fun and welcoming environment.

The Nook, our designated kids art space is the perfect spot for little artists to pause, play, and create, whether that’s colouring in, sketching their next masterpiece, or simply letting their creativity run wild.
The Nook Library
In a dedicated corner of The Nook, we have a shelf of books from Letterkenny Central Library that share the joy of reading with kids of all ages – with an arts theme, of course!
