Many of these old hedgerows form part of the foundations of this landscape and today we will sketch and paint and create images of what we see as well as help make a sculpture from recycled materials of one of the animals found here too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>This day\u2019s workshop is designed to allow visitors attending to spend just a few minutes, or maybe a few hours in this creative process. You can drop in and out as you like. All the works made during the day will form part of one large collage for the 2d works and the completion of the animal sculpture.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Today is a special day where we can spend a little time focusing on things which we normally just pass by on our way to somewhere else. This workshop is suitable for all ages, for locals and visitors alike and the works will form part of an ongoing exhibition throughout Kerry later in the year.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":37497,"template":"","class_list":["post-37496","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Wonderful West Kerry - Creative Ireland Programme<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A day of creativity with international sculptor Ben Dearnley, as part of the &#039;Connecting Kerry\u2019s wildlife: Hedgerows &amp; Trees in the Kingdom &#039; projectCome and join in with this creative days celebration of West Kerry\u2019s hedgerows and the animals found within.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Wonderful West Kerry - Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A day of creativity with international sculptor Ben Dearnley, as part of the &#8216;Connecting Kerry\u2019s wildlife: Hedgerows &amp; Trees in the Kingdom &#8216; project Come and join in with this creative days celebration of West Kerry\u2019s hedgerows and the animals found within.&nbsp; This 1 day workshop is open for all ages (under 16\u2019s to be [&hellip;]\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Creative Ireland Programme\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CreativeIrl\/\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@creativeirl\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/\",\"name\":\"Wonderful West Kerry - Creative Ireland Programme\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/app\/uploads\/2025\/08\/benimage_0.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2025-08-20T02:03:16+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/app\/uploads\/2025\/08\/benimage_0.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/app\/uploads\/2025\/08\/benimage_0.jpg\",\"width\":700,\"height\":450},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/event\/wonderful-west-kerry-2\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Wonderful West Kerry\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.creativeireland.gov.ie\/en\/\",\"name\":\"Creative Ireland Programme\",\"description\":\"The Creative Ireland Programme is guided by a vision that every person in Ireland will have the opportunity to realise their full creative potential.
