Bring and Tell

Bring something treasured to The Dock, something you consider to be part of the rich array of folk art: a hand-made farm tool or musical instrument, an old ponjar or milk jug, a hand-made quilt or blanket, a butter print, a drawing or painting – and we’ll share conversation and memories.

This Bring and Tell event accompanies The Green Loy exhibition grounded in the life and traditions of Leitrim and the north-west. The exhibition includes a tin fiddle, Leitrim chairs, cow and donkey masks, patchwork and crochet work, all by local makers, and much more.

Join writer and broadcaster Vincent Woods and dancer and community artist Edwina Guckian at the Dock on Saturday 18 July, 2—5pm. Admission is free, no booking required. For further information and access requests, please contact Curator Erika Holum at erika.holum@leitrimcoco.ie.

Also on Saturday 18 July at 6pm, there will be a free screening of Pat Collin's documentary Henry Glassie: Field Work. Tickets are free and available here. For further information and access requests, please contact Events Manager Jane Carmody at jane.carmody@leitrimcoco.ie.
