Do you have kids?

Do they like drawing things?

They may love the Animagination Festival at the Riverbank Arts Centre, Newbridge, County Kildare during Easter weekend.

Eric writes:

We’re once again running our Animagination Festival; celebrating all things books, illustration, and animation. The festival will run from Friday, April 14 to Monday April 17 which may be of interest to your readers with young children.

As always, the events have been kept as reasonable as possible in terms of pricing to make it as accessible as possible for families. Screenings cost €4 per ticket right across the board.

In fairness.

Sploid’s Rhett Jones sez:

Robert Zemeckis has been hit or miss for almost two decades. But in the eighties, he was on fire. Along with Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit is just one of those movies that remains great no matter how many years pass and its technical achievements are still a marvel. But why does it work so well?
