Come and join us on the farm for a three dimensional look at horses.
We’ll be visiting Fox Hill Farm in Galway for three sessions; each
session will imagine horses from a different angle.
August 4, Wednesday, 10:00am – 11:30am: Getting to know the horse: Two horse experts, a barn manager and a farrier will give us an overview of horses and their care. Includes a chance to try your hand at some basic horse handling.
August 11, Wednesday,10:00am – 11:30am: Drawing horses: We’ll consider the horse from an artist’s point of view with area artists Regina Doi and Benno Kollegger who will help you draw and paint a horse from a real model.
August 18, Wednesday, 10:00am – 11:30am: Horse stories: Bring and share a horse story you have written (one page). We’ll read the stories out loud and talk about how to make them gallop off the page.
September 4, Saturday, 11:00am-12:00am : Horse stories read at the library.
