Nepal Ireland Day 2018, Farmleigh House

Nepal Ireland Day in Farmleigh, Phoenix Park, Dublin was held on 9th September 2018. Another great family day out combining cultures, crafts and foods, in the sunshine.

We sold lots of our felt craft cones and batik cards,  which have been made in Nepal. These support the small cottage industries and talented artisans.

Crafts and travel exhibition, Farmleigh.
