Interweaving Communities

On Wednesday 25 May 2011, several community groups who have been involved in the North East PEACE III project ‘Leadership in a shared society” organised the launch of a piece of artwork. 

The artwork was completed by Michael Hogg and was a product of collaborative working between all the groups involved in the project. The event also showcased art which participants worked on individually. These art pieces are an excellent example of community groups working together and learning together to produce art that reflects their experiences in the community. The artwork is recognition of the confidence and new skills that people in our community have acquired.

All who attended, including the Ballymena Borough Council Mayor and Duncan Morrow, Chief Executive of the Community Relations Council, agreed that the event was a real success.
