Children's History Workshop: Dublin's History in Maps
Sold OutKids compare old and modern maps of Dublin with the city's Historian in Residence for Children, then draw a map of their own.
Good to know
What to expect
Dublin's Historian in Residence for Children, Lorcan McEvoy, spreads out maps of the city from different centuries and gets kids comparing them — what was marshland, where the walls ran, which streets appeared and vanished. Then everyone draws their own map of Dublin. It is a looking-and-drawing hour pitched at 7 to 12 year olds, and an adult stays with each child throughout.
