Mother Tongues’ Language Explorer workshops provide a unique creative experience for parents and their children based on storytelling, play, visual arts and music. While the workshops will be guided in English, we encourage families to embrace their home languages. This workshop focuses on the crafting of vintage toys with multidisciplinary artist Fernanda Ferrari. Unleash creativity using simple everyday materials, make friends from all over the world, and create a special bond with your child through the magic of art-making.

Songs of Empowerment is a workshop conducted by Colm Quearney, a workshop facilitator and Development and Outreach Officer with Fighting Words. At this workshop, participants have the opportunity to look at the history of songs that empower and will draw on these themes to create their own songs relevant to today’s generation.
