Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again

Join us at ‘Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again’ for a free, interactive Harvest Bow workshop for children, aged 9-12 years, with Dublin’s Historian-in-Residence for Children, Dervilia Roche. In partnership with Dublin City Council Culture Company, this event will explore the origins of the harvest bow as well as the folklore of harvest time in Ireland. Kids will get to take home their own handcrafted harvest bow. All kids should bring their own grownup! 
 
“As you plaited the harvest bow
You implicated the mellowed silence in you
In wheat that does not rust
But brightens as it tightens twist by twist
Into a knowable corona,
A throwaway love-knot of straw.”
-- From ‘The Harvest Bow’ by Seamus Heaney
