Members of St Christopher’s Art Group, led by tutor Jean Healy, joined forces with Lus na Gréine, Granard Knitters to create a vibrant and eye-catching festive 'yarn bombing' display in the heart of Granard town.

Supported by Lus na Gréine and St Christophers staff and volunteers, the collaborative project has brought a wonderful splash of colour to the area outside the Garda Station.

Over the last six weeks the display became a focal point for the town, drawing admiration from local residents and visitors alike.

The group has received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback, with many stopping to view and photograph the spectacular work.

The organisers would like to extend sincere thanks to Sergeant Kieran for granting permission to display the artwork at such a prominent location.

The project has been described as a great success and a source of pride for everyone involved.

All participants are to be commended for their creativity, teamwork and community spirit, which have helped brighten Granard town and showcase the power of collaboration.
