Butter Museum – Dr. Danielle O’Donovan, Project Director

The Butter Museum received funding from The Golden Jubilee Trust over winter 2024-5. The funding allowed us to co-design and pilot a range of learning activities with schools in Cork City and County. It was wonderful to have the creative freedom to experiment with schools over a number of sessions, both in school and at the museum. We made butter, handled museum objects and explored a range of online sources for the history of dairying. The funding has also allowed us to work with a designer to create online learning activities that explore topics as varied as The Táin Bó Cúailnge and the influence of butter on the development of Cork City. We’re so grateful to The Golden Jubilee Trust – the activities and resources we have created will be the foundation of our schools programme over many years.
