The long shadow of St Kilian's death

Cruinniú na nÓg Eevent

Later this year, the ancient relics of St. Kilian will return to Mullagh, the birthplace of St Kilian. This is a once in a lifetime event for the community, parish and wider diocese, and they are celebrating the event. Pupils from St Kilian’s NS have learned the amazing story of St Kilian and will perform a shadow puppetry drama to highlight his importance. Workshops for children demonstrate the processes involved when producing shadow puppetry.

Tap into your child’s creative side with one - or more - of the free events organised for this year’s Criunniu na nÓg. The events are being held across the county and while June 15 is the culmination, there’s fun workshop events in the run-up to the big day. Below are just some highlights, see cruinniu.creativeireland.gov.ie
