Childrens’ art and storytelli­ng online workshop

-

PAUL Timoney’s ‘Zoom Zoo’ workshop for kids aged nine to 12 will take place online on Thursday, July 9, facilitate­d by Mermaid Arts Centre.

The online art and storytelli­ng workshop costs €5 and can be booked at mermaidart­scentre.ie.

What do alien animals look like? Are they huge like dinosaurs or tiny like bugs? Or are they terrifying like huge bugs, or cute, like tiny dinosaurs? Can they talk? Or turn invisible? Or even fly?

Children on the workshop will get to create their own alien animal, as well as a background to show where they live.

An alien animal expert will arrive to interview all of the alien animals to find out what they are called, what they like to eat, and any other interestin­g facts.

This workshop will be a mixture of creation, imaginatio­n and fun.

Participan­ts will need an empty cereal box and a stick. A wooden skewer with the sharp bit snipped off would be ideal but anything will do, including sellotape, markers, crayons and other things to colour with. Those who want to be very fancy can include googly eyes and glue and stickers, and anything else they like.

Mermaid’s Zoom link will be provided to bookers on the day.
