For Tipperary Bealtaine 2023, artist Aoife Barrett (Print Van Go, travelling print studio) is working with Clonoulty’s ‘Young At Heart’ club and other members of the community on a creative project to explore the joys of herbal health and the many and varied uses and needs for herbs.

Over a 6 week period, every Wednesday from April 5th to May 10th, 10am -12pm, Aoife will facilitate a pop-up tea room at the Clonoulty Community Hall and run a series of creative sessions and gatherings to restore, reconnect and reimagine our herbal traditions. Aoife invites members of Young At Heart and the wider Clonoulty community to join her at the Clonoulty Community Hall to make and share together over a cup of herbal tea while engaging in activities and discussions around our herbal traditions. Creative workshops will involve planting and growing herbs, sharing herbal remedies, recipes, printmaking and textiles. No experience necessary.
