🧠✨ Banner Brains – A Creative Exhibition ✨🧠
De Valera Library - Monday 29 September

The most amazing morning was had for the opening of our Ennis clients art exhibition: Banner Brains: Still In Clare – A Story of Recovery, Identity, and Place.

Through expressive canvas paintings, participants explore life before and after brain injury. One half of each painting represents the confusion or fragmentation of early recovery, while the other half reflects healing, resilience, and reconnection with self and place.

The project is supported by De Valera Library, Ennis, and Creative Ireland, and is available to view until Monday 13 October.

Special thanks to Donna McGettigan, TD; Cllr. Paul Murphy, Mayor of Clare; Cllr. Mary Howard, Mayor of Ennis; and Cllr. Tommy Guilfoyle, who attended the launch.
