Sea Foraging with Samuel Arnold Keane

  • Workshop

Join Samuel Arnold Keane at the designated meeting point in Blackrock Park for an exploration of seaweed and sea plants and to learn more about Dún Laoghaire’s coastline. These 45 minute walks will include foraging and making an artistic record of the coastal plants along the trail, and will introduce the names of plants as gaeilge. 

Taking place from 11.30am – 12.15pm, 12.30pm – 1.15pm and 2.00pm – 2.45pm places are filled on a first come first serve basis. When the tide allows these walks will include steps and a visit to the beach.

Samuel Arnold Keane is a forager, illustrator, performer… merging various art forms to tell the stories of the seaweeds, coasts and streets he gathers, wades and walks… At the essence of his creative practice is a passion for the natural world and to share this with others through image, performance, song and word.

This event is part of a special Cruinniú na nÓg family day taking place at Blackrock Park which will celebrate the heritage and biodiversity of the park, for further detail on the day please click on the event link.
