We live in a shared world of differing cultures and practices. Making a ‘Dorodango’ a perfectly shinning ball of mud is a technique created for school children in Japan to learn the art of patience as a perfect ball could take 7 hrs to complete. Playing with mud is a foundational activity for all children so why not join us in the Nádúrlann (Nature Room) on Saturday 23rd of August to take part in the art of Dorodango and learn to master playing with mud.

This workshop is suitable for all ages.
Under 18’s must be accompanied by an adult.
Free. Booking essential( places are limited) at emilecrowther@opw.ie or 083 8828848
