DRAW + COMHRÁ WORKSHOP
Thur 26th June 2025 | 7 - 9pm
Looking forward to hosting this next Thursday evening in Cork city. Bígí linn/join us! (booking link above)
A playful workshop to experiment with drawing and speaking Gaeilge, with tea, canapés + seasonal cordial.
Join artist, designer and cook Steph Sheahan for a sociable, playful and creative evening in Cork city where we will experiment with drawing and speaking Gaeilge.
You do not have to be ‘good’ at drawing or speaking Irish to attend. Just bring your curiosity and whatever few words - cúpla focal - you have. I love drawing as a practice as it really helps me to slow down, connect with the present moment, the beauty of the day-to-day and my creative self. And recently I have felt compelled and inspired to return to relearning my native language - mo theanga dhúchais. I feel inspired to share these current interests with mo phobal - my community .
We won’t be speaking Irish for the entire workshop, both English (Béarla) and Irish (Gaeilge) will be interwoven (fite fuaite) throughout the evening. The main intention is to have fun, connect and experiment.
Drawing materials (paper, pens, pencils, markers, pastels) will be provided. And there will be tea, canapés and seasonal cordial by me . I will bring drawing prompts but feel free to bring along any of your favourite objects to draw if you like - these can turn out to be lovely talking pieces!
Any questions do feel free to get in touch.
This workshop will take place at 4 Tuckey Street, Cork - a creative and soulful space in the heart of Cork City.
