The Four Hearts Foundation and the Portsmouth Art Guild present Leprechaun Trap Craft Day!

If you’re looking for a great way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, building your own leprechaun trap is the perfect activity for all ages. Kids and their significant adults will enjoy a fun morning creating a unique leprechaun trap for St. Patrick’s Day. Every trap is unique as there is no right way to catch a leprechaun.

Bring your imagination and create the perfect leprechaun trap to set out on St. Patrick’s Eve. In the morning, children will check to see if the leprechauns visited and perhaps left behind gold coins or other treasure. All materials are provided.

This is a free community activity and donations are encouraged. Space is limited, so please register early.

Leprechaun Profile

Leprechaun

According to Irish folklore, a leprechaun is a little shoemaker that stores their gold in little pots hidden at the end of a rainbow. They are often mischievous and like to play tricks like turning your milk green or rearranging items around your house. If they are ever captured by a human, it is said that they must grant you three wishes in exchange for release, hence the Leprechaun trap.
