Join Eoin Reardon, skilled woodworker and heritage craft advocate, as he shares his passion for traditional woodworking, from hand tools to heritage joinery techniques.

'Exploring Our Foundations'

This event is part of the National Heritage Week 2025 programme. This year's theme is 'Exploring Our Foundations' and we invite you to reconnect with the roots of Irish rural life through the living traditions of basket weaving and woodworking. These crafts are not just skills - they are the foundations of community, sustainability, and identity. Join us in bringing those stories to life through hands-on demonstrations.
