PAINTING PROJECT
Our Lady’s Island Women’s Kitchen is a women’s group operating from the refurbished old playschool room. The group has been together for almost six years and have completed many education and creative projects with WWETB (Waterford Wexford Educational Training Board).
The group is responsible for the mosaic in the community centre and are currently hoping to engage a painting project with artist Helen McCleane through WWETB the project will consist of flora and fauna, fish, butterflies, frogs, birds and animals that are habitats in Our Lady’s Island.
The group is asking the community if they have any pictures or knowledge of these elements to please contact Sarah Newport, Hannah Siggins or another member of the group who meet Wednesdays at 6.30 p.m. Feel free to drop in to see what it’s all about.
