A Sweet treat from the lovely folk at Blarney Woollen Mills and a certificate of participation.

We loved the effort and joy in each piece of work which saw works from individuals and local schools such as Gaelscoil Múscraí, Scoil Croí Íosa, Scoil Mhuire Gan Smál Blarney, Scoil an Athar Tadhg, Carrignabhfear and Vicarstown primary school.

For those who sent in work but didn't place, their art work plus a certificate of acknowledgement will be available to collect from Friday in bfs.

This wouldn't have been possible without the kindness of Blarney Post Office , and Blarney Woollen mills as well as Blarney library hosting the exhibition also.
Huge thank you to them.
