Music & Laughter for Hospital Kids | Galway News

Kids in hospitals across Galway and Mayo are about to get a major mood boost thanks to a new program bringing music, laughter, and creative play straight to their bedsides. Inspired by a vibrant workshop in Castlebar led by international vocal improv guru Guillermo Rozenthuler, Aoife’s Clown Doctors — masters of hospital-based comedy, music, and magic — are learning fresh ways to connect with sick kids through spontaneous, joyful performances. The initiative, supported by University Hospital Galway and the Linenhall Arts Centre, not only lifts spirits for children but also eases stress for parents and staff. It’s all part of building excitement for next year’s Roola Boola Children’s Arts Festival — celebrating its 29th year — ensuring even those too ill to attend still get the creative joy they deserve. Details for the big festival drop soon — mark your calendars. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
