🎨✨ Brightening Cavan Town with Creativity! ✨🎨

We’re delighted to showcase a fantastic creative arts project involving the talented young people from St. Felim’s NS Cavan! 🙌

With imagination, colour and collaboration at the heart of the process, the children transformed the front of a set of stairs leading to the school into a bright and vibrant mural, bringing new life and energy to the space 🌈

Well done to all involved and thanks to Anna from Art flying for her help with the project.

Final Reminder:

Show dates Thursday 16th & Friday 17th April at 7pm.

Set in August 2010, middle-of-nowhere Virginia, the ARDEO MILLS shopping mall somewhat normal evening turns into a night these teenagers will never forget when a vengeful spirit locks them inside.
In MALL RATS, follow a group of mismatched outcasts who have to band together to fight against THE GENERAL-a benevolent spirit with something to prove. By completing his series of tests, they learn about the inner workings of the place they spend their days- and the inner workings of themselves.
