DALKEY BOOK FESTIVAL 2026

Invited by Visit Portugal, Susana Cereja took part in the Dalkey Book Festival 2026 in Ireland, joining the panel Portugal: Europe’s Cultural Gem alongside Afonso Reis Cabral and Madalena Vidigal, in a conversation moderated by festival co-founder David McWilliams. Her participation extended beyond the round table. Susana presented a demonstration of her practice at the festival’s VIP Secret Garden and led the Wine Pairs with Art workshop, exploring ancestral techniques rooted in Portuguese heritage. Across the three events, she presented her work and the way she uses the Arraiolos stitch through references to Portuguese heritage.
