Pa Laide, CEO, Cara Credit Union said; “Unfortunately, we were unable to have our annual prizegiving night where we invite our winners, their families and their teachers to our favourite event of the year.
We were delighted to see so many of our schools encourage their students to participate in the Credit Union Art Competition. This is a fantastic opportunity to display and showcase the level of talent within our common bond of Tralee, Castleisland and Killorglin. All 1st prize winners will now go on to represent Cara Credit Union at Chapter 23 (regional level) of the competition. We all wish them the best of luck.
Art has always been a huge part of Irish life and the Credit Union Art Competition, now in its 37th year, is dedicated to supporting and developing the arts in Irish society. Promoting and encouraging involvement in the arts across communities is an important message we want to spread.”
