Launch of Art Exhibition by Dundalk Positive Mental Health Forum

A wonderful evening was had by all who attended the opening of the Art Exhibition in the County Museum on Tuesday evening. Dundalk Positive Mental Health Forum invited exhibitors to submit their art works, paintings, drawings, sculptures and photographs with the theme of "Positive Mental Health" and the result is a stunning collection of exhibits which have been displayed in the lovely surroundings of the museum.
I was delighted to welcome representatives from organisations which provide support in the field of Mental Health in the Dundalk area including GROW, SHINE, SOSAD, HSE, Dundalk Outcomers, Dundalk Counselling Services and An Garda Síochána. Cllr Eamon O Boyle represented Dundalk Town Council in his role as Chairperson.
The exhibition was officially opened by Mr Stephen Kenny, manager of Dundalk FC who was clearly impressed by the variety and quality of the exhibits. He commended all those who had put such time and effort into their artistic expression and spoke about the importance of people setting goals and achieving them in all walks of life.
The exhibition runs until this Saturday, Oct 12th and is open to the public.
