Liberty Weavers

The Liberties Weavers created a guided walk around the area to discover places, people and textiles that have shaped Ireland's textile history. Marja Almqvist textile artists, weaver and initial mind behind The Liberties Weavers will conduct this amazing experience where the participants rediscover The Liberties as the centre of textile production for over 1000 years, an aspect of our heritage that is often overlooked.

Story writing mentors from Fighting Words will work with teenagers across three mornings helping them to write an original story together, and see it being typed up on the Fighting Words screen. Once they have decided on the characters and plot they will write part of the story together, helped by Fighting Words tutors, editing as they go. They will have time to write their own individual endings to the story.
