Irish Lacemaking Demonstration - Corrib Lacemakers

Lásadóirí na Coiribe/Corrib Lacemakers
Is mian le Lásadóirí na Coiribe cuidiú le hoidhreacht na tíre a chaomhnú agus is cuid luachmhar dár n-oidhreacht í an Lásadóireacht.

Join the Corrib Lacemakers for a live demonstration of traditional Irish lacemaking, featuring three distinct heritage techniques: Carrickmacross Lace, Limerick Lace and Irish Crochet Lace.

The Corrib Lacemakers are a group of likeminded crafters who share a passion for traditional Irish lacemaking. Meeting weekly, the group comes together to learn, practice, and refine these historic skills in a welcoming, social setting.
This demonstration offers visitors a rare chance to see these intricate techniques in action, and to learn about their history and place in Ireland's craft heritage. It's part of the group's ongoing effort to share and celebrate Irish lacemaking with a wider audience along the west coast of Ireland.

Come along to see needle and thread transformed into delicate works of art, and chat with the makers about their craft.
