The happenings at Annascaul Cafe are just a few of the events happening in the village on Dec 10th

As part of our Christmas celebrations in Annascaul on Dec 10th we are delighted to invite you to the village. The festival this year will include puppetry and music at Shadow River Farm. Santa will be here and there are lots of cottage industries selling local and artisan foods . See list below

Sinead is a fantastic artist who writes continually . Her books include “Those who believe in Magic will find it and “A Pocketful of Dreams” This is a reading session and hands on workshop session for children.

To demonstrate her classes  participants will create something lovely beginning. The class starts with a reading, then mindfulness and little yoga, – letting the kids write words that inspire them and energize them. Various aspects happen in this reading class. Firstly, the  children can trade  cards. Secondly, they will have a drawing class. Thirdly and to help with confidence they will use 3 words to describe themselves. As a result this sparks their imagination.

Drawing Materials will also be provided. Call / Text  086 803 5464 to book for Sunday Oct 15th  at 11am

ST. NICHOLAS
Children around the world know and love St. Nicholas—for he brings gifts and treats in December. He is known by different names—and even looks different from place to place. But, it is the same St. Nicholas who delights with small surprises and good things to eat. Nicholas gave in secret, alert to others’ needs, and expecting nothing for himself in return.
According to local Irish legend, Saint Nicholas is buried in County Kilkenny.
