Join us online for Music Makers, a series of 3 musical storytimes for pre-schoolers where we will be making our own instruments and using them to add sound effects to stories and songs.
In session one we will be making our instruments using items commonly found around the home and putting them to good use in sessions 2 & 3!

We are delighted to be partnering with Music Generation DLR on these events.

A Zoom invitation will be emailed to participants in advance along with a list of suggested supplies to have on hand for making the instruments.

Congratulations to Erika Csibi, staff member at dlr LexIcon on her excellent article in the current An Leabharlann, click here (page 24) It is a particularly vital subject worldwide at present. Who can we trust in an era of fake news?
 
The article brings together all of Erika’s work on the Media Literacy series Disinformation, Fake News & Privacy that ran throughout the autumn and is ongoing with schools. See the various videos, webinar links here.
