Carlow College is delighted to host a ‘Day of Learning and Active Citizenship’ on Saturday the 19th of March. Open to the public, this will be a day for exploring how you can become an active, inclusive citizen in your community. The Day will include interaction with the Rohingya Community living in Carlow and workshops on empowerment.
The day will also include making stars as part of the One Million Stars Project. Amber’s One Million Stars Ireland project is an inclusive community arts project connecting communities across Ireland in solidarity against domestic abuse and all forms of violence. Each eight-point star woven represents light, hope and solidarity against violence, promoting our project’s eight points of healthy love within relationships. The completed stars on Saturday, will be part of the ‘stars and strips’ art project. Participants will learn to make their own stars (in colours of their choice), with the support of some of our current Social Political and Community Studies students. All welcome!
