My brilliant book club exhibition 

Visit the My Brilliant Book Club exhibition in Cregan Library this week and discover original book covers designed by the fourth class students from Grace Park ETNS.
 

The exhibition is open to the public from Monday 3rd March to Saturday 8th March, during library opening hours. Cregan Library is located on the DCU St Patrick's Campus in Drumcondra

 

In preparation for the exhibition, two groups of fourth class Grace Park ETNS students attended a DCU Library workshop in February 2025. Author and illustrator Ciara Gavin taught the groups how to design attention-grabbing book covers - see their brilliant creations and pictures from the workshop below.

 

This exhibition ties in with World Book Day Ireland which is taking place this year on Thursday 6th March. This annual initiative champions the fun of reading, because it seriously improves lives. Find out more about how reading for fun is the single biggest indicator that a child will grow up to enjoy a happier and more successful life and discover events happening near you on the World Book Day Ireland site

 

We're grateful to Poetry Ireland, whose Writers in Schools scheme supported Ciara Gavin's visit.
