Féíle Art Project – can you help?

Our community art project running at the Community Centre next Wed (4 – 8pm) and Thursday (noon – 6pm) is based on a recycling theme, and is aiming to create artwork to decorate the new park for the official opening next Friday.

First of all, you are more than welcome to come along and participate either Wednesday or Thursday. On Wednesday, we’d be particularly delighted to see older children as there are still places available.

Second, do you have any of the following that you can let us have:

Cardboard

old buckets, pots or pans

old mops / brushes or just handles

old clothes, especially tights

old cushions / pillows

old pillow cases

If you can help with any of the above, contact Stacy please on 087 9922481 before next Tuesday, July 22nd.
