A local public art exhibition by artists with disabilities is underway until this Saturday in Cavan
The exhibition is taking place in the Johnston Library, Farnham Street in Cavan town.
Cavan County Local Development as part of its Social Inclusion Programme SICAP has been running an art programme for people with disabilities in Day Centres in Cavan and Virginia since 2015. The programme uses art as a medium to improve mental health, social interaction, and personal skills.
Aisling McKenna, Clinical Nurse Manager of the Clogher House and Virginia Day Activation Unit says this programme has huge benefits for the artists participating in the exhibition.
