Creative Sessions in Leeds - St Brigid's Arms

By Emerald LENS

Headingley Enterprise & Arts CentreHeadingley, England

Tuesday, Apr 14 at 5 pm to Tuesday, Jun 30 at 7 pm

We're running free creative sessions in Leeds for Irish heritage women to explore identity, culture, memory and migration as part of the St Brigid's Arms project. This is open to any and all Irish heritage women. All levels of experience are welcome - no experience is necessary. Sessions will take place at HEART (Headingley Enterprise & Arts Centre).

Over 5 sessions (either daytime or evening) you will be guided by the facilitator on creatively expressing your identity in a relaxed and welcoming environment. Please only sign up if you can make 4-5 of the sessions as you will be building on your work from previous weeks.

All materials will be provided, as well as refreshments. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us on emeraldlensinfo@gmail.com.

Some of the artwork created in these sessions will be featured (with permission) in our exhibition at the Victoria Gallery & Museum in Liverpool in September 2026 - March 2027. We're not looking for expert art, but work that reflects the experience of Irish heritage women, whatever that may be!
