A unique art exhibition entitled “Naming the Children” will be on display in Donegal County Museum during February.

The exhibition is being held in association with The Raphoe Justice & Peace Committee, the Connemara Peace Group and Veterans for Peace Ireland opens in the museum this Saturday 1st February at 1pm.

This powerful art exhibition features the portraits of 20 children who have died all over the world as the result of war and conflict.

These portraits symbolically represent all children who have died and result or consequence of recent worldwide wars and conflict. 20 artists resident in Donegal and the North West participated in this art exhibition.

This exhibition shows the reality of war and conflict through the eyes of these children. These children have a right to be identified, to have their stories told, to take their place in our conscience and in our memories. They died at the hands of others.

Educational workshops for schools led by Conflict Textiles Curator, Roberta Bacic will be held on Wednesday 26th and Thursday 27th February – bookings are required.

Schools and groups are most welcome to come and visit this powerful exhibition. The exhibition runs to Saturday 29th February and admission is free.
