One day I will make it to Art in the Open!
Might take a few years still, but I'm promising myself this!

Gerri, thank you for volunteering to wear a Console tee shirts.  Some artist thought I was selling them,

The director of Console Denis O Connor was on holidays and he asked me to help out, on behalf of  our team of 6 counsellors .  The money is still coming in by post.  We provide free support to people who are effected by suicide. I'm still amazed by Leon and Antti generosity, what wonderful guys.

Rita, It's brilliant that the Console collected so much. It was so great to be part of the day and I got to wear one of your lovely t-shirts!

The Quick Paint Charity event in Enniscorty was a great success and fun. The Art in Open  charity was kindly donated to "Console". So far we have collected  1,510 euro,  proceeds from the artists who gave 5euro to paint.  Leon Holmes and Antti Rautiola  did a joint painting, it was auctioned by Tony who did a great job he can give up the framing, the painting made 575 euro. 100.% went to Console. Also the artists  who sold their paintings gave 10% and some gave 100% . Even the none painters contributed.  Thank you all so much for your generosity on behalf of Console  I'm a counsellor & psychotherapist with Console we help children, family's and friends to cope with the loss of a loved one by suicide.
