Arts Week Fun 2024

Our Arts Week Committee were welcomed down to the Clifden Arts Week office this week for morning tea to say Thank You to them for all their hard work, help and assistance with this years artists. The students met with the veteran Arts Festival Organiser Mr Flynn and it was a joy to see him have a chat with the students about how they enjoyed their Arts Week.
