Chemistry and the Celts with Scientific Sue In-Person
Join Gorey Library and Calmast in welcoming Scientific Sue this Science Week!
Dressed as a wise druid, Sue blends history, storytelling, and explosive chemistry to reveal how the Celts harnessed the elements to forge iron, make medicines, dye cloth, and even create soap. From fiery metalwork and natural dyes to some hilariously smelly experiments involving ancient Celtic techniques, every moment brings science and history to life in unforgettable ways.
With plenty of audience participation — including volunteers minting coins, crafting soap, and experimenting with colour-changing chemistry — this show is bursting with fun, learning, and laughter.
Suitable for the whole family- please book a seat for each person attending
