  • Early Years

Singing Garden is an immersive, multi-sensory experience created especially for babies (0–18 months) and their important adults.

Led by Graffiti:BEAG artists in collaboration with The African Queens – a Cork-based South African all-female a cappella ensemble – this gentle and engaging experience invites participants to explore lullabies, music and sound, alongside colours, textures and elements of nature. Using soft, playful materials, Singing Garden creates a calm and nurturing space for connection, curiosity and early sensory discovery. 

BEAG is a pioneering early years arts programme run by Graffiti since 2010 – delivering high-quality creative experiences for children from birth to three years of age.

Funded by The Arts Council, Cork County Arts Office, Cork City Arts Office and HSE South.
