As part of Bealtaine 2025, Meath County Council's Library Service has organised over 30 events that will run in libraries across the county for the entire month of May.
This year, Bealtaine is celebrating 30 years of the festival running in Ireland, celebrating age and creativity.
Highlights of this year's events include the Big Bealtaine Book Quiz open to all Meath book clubs, and Healthy Ireland events such as Pilates, Chair Yoga and Chair Exercise.
There are also creative events such as pressed flower crafts, paint by numbers sessions, mono print art, and art workshops with artist John Carpenter.
Bealtaine will also see an event in Oldcastle Library with celebrated author Seamus O’Rourke, in addition to music and poetry-based events throughout the county including concerts by the Buvinda Choir and the Ashbourne Ensemble Choir along with a concert featuring Soprano Teresa Carley.
There is also a reminiscence workshop on poems and songs learned at school while Trim Library is holding a Poetry Exhibition throughout the month.
Film buffs will enjoy a film festival running once a week in May. For those who wish to improve their Irish, they can take part in our Irish conversation workshop for beginners. Line dancing and angle meditation workshops are also on the schedule.
Details on all these events are available at www.meathlibraries.ie, the library social media pages or at any Meath Library throughout the county.
