⛪️ FESTIVAL OF CLOAKS ⛪️
Late posting this but it's been a busy time! I had a lovely time decorating the chancel of St Columb's Cathedral for the òpening of their "Festival of Cloaks" If you get a chance to visit the Cathedral I'd really recommend it, an extraordinary mix of cloaks and their stories that tell the history of so many eras of this city! The exhibition is on until the 31st August
