Cork County Council’s Library and Arts Service has announced the 2024 Cruinniú na nÓg programme, with over 30 creative events planned across the county on Saturday the 15th of June. This year’s programme is unique in that it was almost entirely programmed by the children of Cork themselves. 

Through the ‘My Creative Wish’ arts initiative, children and young people were invited to submit their creative wishes late last year. Over 30 wishes have since been granted with workshops on art, design, animation, comic books, song writing, circus and fashion delivered in schools and libraries throughout County Cork.

The creative workshops will culminate with events on Saturday the 15th of June as part of Cruinniú na nÓg - Ireland’s National Day of Creativity, with a host of free creative classes on offer in library branches across the county.
