A Blooming Great Day: Reading and Workshop with Úna Woods
Dublin City, Co. Dublin
14 June 2026
Join us at the James Joyce Centre on Sunday, 14th June at 11am for a children’s event of fun, mischief, and Joyce!

It seems like just another ordinary day for Rosie and her grandad. But as soon as they step outside, they find themselves on a blooming great adventure around Dublin on the 16th of June, 1904!

Join us at the James Joyce Centre on Sunday, 14th June at 11am for a children’s event of fun, mischief, and Joyce! Author and illustrator Úna Woods will read from her new children’s book A Blooming Great Day (The O’Brien Press) and lead a drawing workshop. The children will draw scenes from the book and design their own hats! This is a great way for children to be introduced to Joyce and to partake in Dublin’s great literary tradition.

Tickets are €10 with special 2-for-1 sale.
