This book brings together a collection of artwork and stories that were created by children in Ballina, Co. Mayo, in response to the Travellers’ Journey/Mincéir Misli’d exhibition at the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life, Castlebar. After an initial trip to the museum, the chidlren – from Scoil Íosa and Involve Youth Project – went on their own journey of exploration, working alongside writer Mary Branley and artist Cas McCarthy to develop this colourful celebration of identity and culture.
This project was a collaboration between Kids’ Own Publishing Partnership, The National Museum of Ireland, Involve Youth Project, Ballina and Scoil Íosa, Ballina.
