Donegal Youth Service (DYS) hosted its highly anticipated yearly Celebration Event in ATU Donegal’s An Dánlann venue in Letterkenny recently.
It was attended by over 100 young people, who actively participated in a range of hands-on practical youth work activities.
The Celebration Event provided an incredible platform for young people to showcase their talents and skills. Throughout the day, the enthusiastic young performers captivated the audience with their outstanding performances. From music to Indian classical dance, their abilities were truly remarkable.
