We are delighted to welcome back Paul Timoney as our Storyteller in Residence for this year’s Yarn Storytelling Festival Bray. Paul will be facilitating a series of workshops with pupils from North Wicklow Educate Together Secondary School to help them create a story-themed show. Particular emphasis will be on working with pupils with more complex needs and harnessing their storytelling creativity.

The participants are being given the opportunity to express their stories through a variety of different media, including painting, drawing, sculpture, writing, video, and even live performance. The shape of the exhibition at the start of the series of workshops is a blank canvas as Paul will let the children take the lead during the autumn workshop series – what we do know is that it will be colourful, it will be inspiring and it will be completely amazing!
