About this event

Sarah Webb and a team of professional authors and illustrators are currently setting up a guild for Irish or Irish based professional children’s authors, illustrators and creatives (children’s script writers etc are included) called Cruthú/Create.

One of the aims of Cruthú/Create: The Irish Children’s Writers’ Guild is to host regular meet ups where professional children’s creatives can exchange experiences and ideas and talk about their work in a mutually supportive environment.

If you would like to talk about your own work for young audiences with fellow children’s creatives, or simply have a social coffee with other children’s authors or illustrators, please do come along. All professional* children’s authors, illustrators and writers are welcome.

(*One traditionally published book under your belt with an established Irish or international publishing house eg The O’Brien Press, Little Island, HarperCollins. Or a track record in creating children’s scripts eg for RTÉ. Please note we will not be able to advise new writers or illustrators about writing, illustrating or publishing at this event.)


Please note we may be capturing candid imagery at this event for use on our social media and website.
