Thursdays - 10am - Ballinderreen Community Centre H91 TC65

I'm a new mum looking for community, and I thought there might be others looking for the same.

Join me and my little one for a relaxed weekly drawing session where the focus is on slowing down, being creative, and enjoying some time for yourself. Each week I'll set up a simple drawing activity designed to be playful, accessible, and calming. There are no rules, no pressure, and no critiques, this isn't an art class where your work is corrected. Instead, it's a space to explore the benefits of drawing for your wellbeing, connect with other mams, and rediscover your creativity.

Babies up to one year old are welcome. Wear your baby, bring a pram, or let them lie, crawl, and play on soft mats while you draw. Feeding, crying, changing nappies, and stopping halfway through are all completely normal here.
