Stories in Lace / Scéalta i Lása
Stories in Lace is more than just an exhibition—it’s a living tapestry of history, heritage, and human connection.
One of the most captivating elements of the exhibition is how it honour’s lace making as a skill passed down through generations. Visitors can trace the journey of techniques that have survived wars, migrations, and cultural shifts—each stitch and thread carrying the wisdom of ancestors and the creativity of modern hands. A standout feature is the emphasis on making lace making accessible to everyone. Through interactive demonstrations in Carrickmacross, Limerick,, Youghal needlepoint and Irish Crochet Lace, Stories in Lace invites people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities to experience the joy and meditative power of lace making. This is event is taking place in the Connemara Gaeltacht on the Wild Atlantic Way. Tar isteach agus bigí linn. Beidh míle fáilte roimh chách.
