How does it feel to be as old as a stone? Is a stick still part of the tree it grew from?
Wonder together with Dr. Lucy Elvis and Philosophers from CURO who have created this gallery session for families to spend some time together to think and wonder about the artist Bridget Flannery's abstract landscapes with their children in our galleries.
We will encourage exciting and important conversations about big ideas, while awakening your and your children's imagination. This way of thinking helps us practice our ability to express ourselves and to reason. It's also fun and there will be some poetry, and bit of drawing too!
Early booking Advised through Box Office: 01-885 2622 or Online
