Kite-making workshop

Join visual artist Thaís Muniz and kite-maker Lucas Paranhos for a kite-making workshop on Saturday 11 July, 2—5pm. Participants will learn step-by-step how to make their own kite and, by the end of the workshop, will leave with their own creation. Weather-permitting, we will fly our kites together.

Suitable for all ages and abilities. Children must be accompanied by an adult. All materials are provided. Workshop fee is €10 including light refreshments.

Thaís Muniz is a Brazilian-Irish visual artist and researcher working across multiple mediums to explore the intersections of inherited and acquired identities, memory, transit, and inward love. Her community-oriented practice unfolds through intimate communal learning processes, including workshop, performance, installation, sculpture, and film. Her work also spans photography, celebrations, and activations, often incorporating archives, personal memorabilia, and symbology.
