For this programme, dlr Libraries will be welcoming acclaimed poet, writer and dramatist Colm Keegan along with talented Marvel comic colourist Tr\u00edona Farrell, as they deliver a series of workshops for local teenagers under the theme of Oscar Wilde’s famous quote “Be yourself; everyone else is already taken”.<\/p>\n

Participants can choose which artist to work with, and over the course of four weeks the two groups will be guided by the facilitators as they each create their own original story. At the end of the project we will collate participants’ final pieces of work for inclusion in a publication which will be launched later in the year.<\/p>\n

This programme is suitable for ages 15 – 17 yrs (4th – 6th Year ). Workshop will take place on the 8, 15, 22 and 29 October in dlr LexIcon, 5.30-7.30pm.<\/p>\n
