Young people of Donegal invited to help shape next Cruinniú na nÓg

A free day of creativity is taking place on Saturday June 10th, 2023 and Donegal County Council want the children and young people of Donegal to help us shape the events that take place locally for this year’s Cruinniú na nÓg.

Have you ever wanted to try something creative? Are you passionate about something and want to explore it in a creative way? Parents, is there something creative you would like your baby or toddler to try? We want to hear ideas from anyone aged 0-18 years across Donegal.

Cruinniú na nÓg, a national day of creativity, will celebrate its sixth year on June 10th, 2023. It enables young people aged 0-18 to explore their creative potential by offering free opportunities to do, see, make, or try.

Cruinniú na nÓg simply means: ‘The gathering of young people’ and is a highly engaging initiative of the Creative Ireland programme in partnership with Local Authorities. Ireland is the only country in the world to have a national day of free creativity for children and young people. The initiative is led out locally by Donegal County Council’s Culture and Creativity Team which includes members of Donegal Youth Council.

Speaking on behalf of the team, Karen Sheehy A/Senior Executive Librarian encourages children and young people to put forward their suggestions either by calling into their local library, Donegal County Museum or Regional Cultural Centre or submit their suggestions online. ‘We are looking for children and young people to help shape some of the creative activities that will take place on the day by telling us what they’d like to take part in or explore. There’s no suggestion too big or too small… Every suggestion counts!’

‘Once suggestions are gathered, we will explore how the activities can be delivered on June 10th. It’s about designing a programme for young people, by young people while also providing new and exciting opportunities in Donegal.’

If you are or know a young person under the age of 18, please ask them to submit their suggestions. It’s completely anonymous and will help shape a meaningful creative day for young people throughout the county.

Simply submit ideas at www.wainfest.ie or call in to your local library, Donegal County Museum or the Regional Cultural Centre, Letterkenny. Parents and guardians of younger children are invited to submit suggestions on their behalf.
