Tír na nÓg, a supervised Children’s & Youth Program will run Monday–Friday from 9:40 AM to 3:00 PM with One Hour Lunch from 11:40-12:40 during this year’s Catskills Irish Arts Week. Our program offers student workshops in Music, Song, Dance, Poetry, Storytelling, Irish Mythology, Irish Language and Celtic Art.
Immerse your child in a week of Irish Culture & folklore, prompting these precious seeds to bloom, grow and continue our Celtic Traditions.
Each morning they’ll be piped into the program, by uileann piper Tom Wadsworth. Tom will answer all questions on the workings of the Pipes! The children will then divide into age related classrooms, for a fun workshop experience.
- Programs are tailored to students ages 5-12 and 13-18
- Friends and family members may stay together if they wish!
- The teachers will rotate throughout the classes so students may participate in all elements of the program.
Children should bring with them a boxed lunch and drinks. Lunch is one hr: 11:40 AM-12:40 pm.
