Wolfwalkers: The Exhibition 10 Jun – 26 Aug 2023
Step into a world of hand drawn animation and get a glimpse of the vast work involved in creating Wolfwalkers, one of the most magical and beautiful animated Irish films of all time.
A collaboration between the Butler Gallery and five-time Oscar nominated animation studio Cartoon Saloon, this self-guided exhibition experience will share with you the story of Mebh and Robyn as they adventure into the mysterious world of shapeshifters and wolves, on a quest to find Mebh’s mother and save the last of Irelands wild wolves.
As you wander through the exhibition, you’ll see original art, core working drawings and backgrounds from the film, and learn some of the methods and techniques the animators used to bring the story of Wolfwalkers to life.
