The Wise Wool Project is having a celebration of all things Irish Wool at Kate Kearney’s Cottage in the Gap of Dunloe. The ‘Woolly Celebration Day’ will be taking place on Saturday November 9th from 11am. With workshops, demonstrations, storytelling, screenings, discussion panels and music, the event will be a celebration and culmination for the Wise Wool Project.

Join in on the celebrations in bringing together local fiber artists, sheep farmers and the wider community to better understand how to create something from this valuable resource that has been going to waste in Ireland.
