Brigid Cloak Exhibition
The students of St. Brigids School worked extensively with artist Shauna Swords from November 2022 until May 2023 to create a life size Brigid Cloak made out of individual, hand stencilled copper foil circles. The cloak launches in Dundalk library and will move to Ardee and Drogheda libraries for a 9 week long exhibition.
During its residency in each library there will be a series of Brigid themed workshops by artist Susan Farrelly.
