On Sunday, the 11th of January, we will host our first Feltmakers Ireland Sunday Session of 2026.

This month’s session is designed to inspire members as they begin creating felted artwork for our upcoming Annual Exhibition. The 2026 exhibition theme is “Water & Flow”, and the month-long show will take place in April at the Phoenix Park Visitors Centre.

More information about the exhibition, including how to apply, can be found HERE on our website – https://feltmakersireland.com/exhibition-application-2026-water-and-flow/

The session will be divided into two parts:

Mind Mapping for Creative Inspiration

Guild member Deirdre Crofts will guide participants through a mind-mapping exercise to help generate ideas and develop concepts related to the exhibition theme.

Photographing Felted Art with Your Phone

Member and photographer Ramona Farrelly will share practical tips for photographing felted artwork effectively with a mobile phone.

The Details:

When: Sunday, the 11th of January, 2026, 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM.

Where: CIE Sports Hall, Library Square, Inchicore, Kilmainham, Dublin, D8

Additional Information:

If you can, please bring a home-baked good to share and a travel mug (so we can reduce our use of disposable cups).

And, as this is the season of coughs and sneezes, please refrain from coming if you feel unwell. We do have the benefit of technology – there will be access via Zoom, although it is not quite as lovely as being with us in person.

We look forward to welcoming members for a creative and inspiring start to the year.

If you want to join or renew your membership, please do so via our Membership Page – https://feltmakersireland.com/membership-application/
