Deadly Moons in Newgrange Saturday August 22nd at 12pm and 2:30pm FREE EVENTS for Heritage Week
Deadly Moons is a drawing workshop that teaches a little bit about our moon , and the other exotic moons in our solar system. We learn about moon phases, busy moons , quite moons , Galilean moons, moon exploration and moon terminology . We have fun with moons and create our choices on black paper with soft pastels in vivid colors.
Deadly Moons is now part of a cornerstone project for International Year of Astronomy 2009
under the wing of UNAWE ie Universe Awareness for Young Children.
I wrote Deadly Moons to bring awareness to children about our moon, and the many equally exotic
moons of our solar system. In the workshop we talk about moons,and we create our choices on black paper with soft pastels in vivid colors.
Over 2000 Irish children have taken part in the Deadly Moon workshop
The workshop takes one hour to complete, all materials provided
