Call Out to Young Carers: Songwriting & Recording Workshop in Cork!
Do you know a YOUNG CARER aged 12-15? We're collaborating with the Young Carers Conference 2026 to host a unique once-off rap, songwriting, and recording workshop at The Kabin Studio in Cork. The song will be played at the National Youth Carers Conference in March.
- When: Thursday, January 29th, 2026 (3-hour fun, writing & recording session from 5 to 8pm).
- Where: The Kabin Studio, Harbour View Road, Knocknaheeny, Cork, T23 K23Y.
- What: A chance to write and record your own song, giving a platform for young carers' voices to be heard! (Note: Participants do not need to be a primary carer; the definition includes secondary carers, those with family members facing mental health challenges or addiction, and youth with foster siblings. You also don't need to have any experience in rap, singing or songwriting).
Let's make some noise!
Summer Camps in Cork
Crawford Art Gallery- Free Art Class-Paint the Spring
PAINT THE SPRING: Children’s Nature Printing Workshops
We are delighted to be hosted by @corkpublicmuseum at Fitzgerald’s Park for two special nature themed workshops! Drawing on #Imbolc, the traditional celebration marking the arrival of spring, children are invited to celebrate Brigid’s Weekend through a hands-on nature printing workshop.
Inspired by artworks from Crawford Art Gallery’s collection that explore themes of nature, this creative session encourages young participants to experiment with printmaking techniques using organic materials. Guided by artist Amal Hope, children may work with leaves, flowers, plants, and other natural materials to create their own unique prints.
*This event is free, but booking is required. Children must be accompanied by an adult.*
