February 1 marks Lá Fhéile Bríde or St Brigid’s Day and there are many traditions and customs associated with this feast-day, dedicated to Ireland's patron saint.
St Brigid's Day (and the older Celtic festival of Imbolc) was an important seasonal marker in folk tradition - signifying the start of spring, new life, fertility and growth.
Join a Museum educator to learn how to make your own St. Brigid's Cross using the methods which have been handed down from previous generations.
