Brushstrokes will hold their annual Christmas exhibition in St. Mary’s Hall from Thursday 3rd December until Sunday 6th December, 2015. Brushstrokes are celebrating “20 Years a Growing” this year in 2015, so drop in and have a browse. There are works at prices to suit all budgets and they make an ideal, locally-made gift for Christmas.

Brushstrokes began from a series of art classes given by Sr. Kathleen Owens in 1995/96. At the time there were about 12 members, today there are 30. The group hold two exhibitions a year—Christmas and Summer—and over the years we have also produced a set of calendars, the proceeds of which have supported local services such as the Tidy Towns and Lough Ree Sub Aqua. This Christmas will be our 35th exhibition. Paintings by members of the group have travelled worldwide and can be found in Canada, America, Australia, New Zealand and many European countries. We hope you will come and enjoy our work this Christmas.
