Walking the land and writing the song as we go.
Ballads of Belonging — a queer songwriting walk where the journey shapes the ballad.
Our first walk followed the Ilen River, mourning the hawthorn trees that were cut down and turning that grief into song. 🌿

All the lovers 💞
Yesterday, in sunny Skibbereen, we recharged our love batteries with the fabulous launch of Grá!
A beautiful partnership between Crawford Art Gallery, @uillinnwestcorkarts , and @saltandpeppercollective with @tomamccullim , this joyful exhibition features more than 50 artworks from the collection, selected by Salt & Pepper and paired with their own creative responses.
Our heartfelt thanks to Ann Davoren and the Uillinn team, the brilliant Salt & Pepper art collective, and all who turned out to spread such unbridled positivity.
🏳️🌈 Grá is now open and runs at Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre until 20 September!
