What to expect...
Borrow a Gallery Explore Bag from Draíocht’s Box Office and use it to guide a self-led visit around the First Floor Gallery exhibition. Each bag includes a small set of objects and prompt cards that help families look closely at artworks and talk about what they notice. There are four different bags - Leaves, Turf, Sticks, and Stones - each with different activities. The bag is used at your own pace in the gallery space: collect it from the Box Office, bring it to the First Floor Gallery, try the prompts together, then return all items when finished. Draíocht suggests allowing around 30 minutes for the activity. Explore Bags are limited, so it’s best to check availability at the Box Office on arrival.
