<h3>Ireland&#8217;s national day of free creativity for children and young people is happening this June and organisers are seeking colourful and arty ideas!</h3>
Cruinniú na nÓg takes place io Saturday, June 11 and in advance of the day, Kerry County Council’s Arts Office | Creative Ireland Kerry Office is looking for feedback from children and young people themselves about what they would like see included in this year’s Kerry programme.
“We want to hear from children and young people themselves,” Kate Kennelly, Arts Officer ¦ Creative Ireland Coordinator, said.
“This is their day for creativity, it is a chance for them to try out new things, or learn more about art forms they are already interested in.”
The Arts Office + Creative Ireland Kerry Office also want to hear from arts practitioners and groups with proposals for this year’s event, particularly those with experience of working with young people and children.
The deadline for receipt of proposals to deliver events is Friday, March 4 at 1pm. The programme will be devised based on feedback from children and young people, informed by what they want to participate in, and witness on the day.
Cruinniú na nÓg 2022 will be a hybrid event with a strong focus on live events. There will be digital elements and some online offerings, to engage as many children and young people as possible, on the day, across Kerry. Creative Ireland Kerry will focus on live events, working with creatives and organisations throughout the county.
The Arts Office + Creative Ireland Kerry Office have complied a short questionnaire on what activities and events you would like to see happen. It will be available on all the Arts Office social media channels: Facebook: KerryCoArts, Twitter: kerrycoarts, Instagram: kerrycoarts or alternatively, email the Arts Office + Creative Ireland Kerry Office at arts@kerrycoco.ie for a copy of the questionnaire on what activities and events you would like to see happen for Cruinniú na nÓg 2022.
