Colaiste na Trocaire (Fainleog Campus),
Celebrating St Bridget Eco Art Creative Engagement Project, was designed to engage the students, mindfully and creatively, with gifts from the natural world. Each young person actively engaged with the process and shared ownership of the final images which was essential, for the success of this project. Thematically, the balance of a traditional Christian subject, contemporary ideas of St/Goddess Bridget, and connection to the natural world, provided a broad working framework for this workshop.
“Ruth’s approach to working with young people is centred around compassion, support, and encouragement. Her remarkable ability to engage young people, results in deep and meaningful experiences for them as they explore their creativity together.”
