Why The Moon Travels
The work is presented and facilitated by professional artists from the Traveller community. It offers young children a unique opportunity to explore Traveller culture and heritage in a positive and open way.
The theme of folktales and their value to a community is also to open up exploration of other cultures and heritages, promoting diversity and inclusion in the classroom.
Presented as part of the TRACKS Network, a partnership between Baboró International Arts Festival for Children, Dublin Fringe Festival, Cork Midsummer Festival and
Bualadh Bos Children’s Festival.
