Culture Night 2025

MicroCultures Miniature Parade & Microverse Exhibition

MicroCultures is a small but mighty celebration— Join Greywood Arts for a parade of shoebox-sized floats, each one highlighting a unique aspect of contemporary Irish culture, reflecting the diversity of our community.

Come along for a fun filled romp down Main Street, culminating with music and the Microverse exhibition in the Coach House at Greywood Arts.

MAKE A FLOAT & JOIN THE PARADE!

Workshop Saturday September 13th 2pm – 4pm

Join Jaki Coffey to prepare a float for the Greywood Arts Microcultures Mini Parade.  All ages and abilities welcome. Materials provided—just bring your ideas and imagination!

Jaki will facilitate you in translating your version of culture to a shoebox size float. Create dioramas, houses, pitches, sheds etc  which reflect on what culture means to you.  We will also think of inventive ways to transport them through the village for the miniature parade on Culture Night.  

Book individually or in your cultural groups e.g. knitters, book clubbers, music groups etc. Feel free to bring specific items to complete your vision, if you wish!

Workshop is FREE but pre-booking is essential – click to book.
