Bright Sparks: Family Event with Margaret Anne Suggs

Join us in MoLI’s Learning Room for this Bright Sparks family event and make your very own Dublin pigeon parade with author Margaret Anne Suggs. Explore some of the landmarks of Dublin with your very own pigeon! Learn the tricks to draw these city birds with character and add them to the family draw-along cityscape. Each child can take their own custom, handmade bird around Dublin to see the sights.
