We were delighted to have our ‘Threading Needles Telling Stories’ project showcased at the Traveller Community Arts Day in Hugh Lane Gallery in Dublin on Thursday.

This doll-making project was supported by Offaly County Council’s Creative Ireland programme in 2024, and celebrates travellers lives and heritage. Members of the Tullamore Traveller’s Chatters and Matters Women’s Group worked with Artist Teresa Doyle to create a collection of textile dolls that serve as vessels to help demonstrate and tell the stories of the participant’s Traveller experiences.

A big thank you to Caoimhe McCabe, Arts & Culture Coordinator with Pavee Point Traveller and Roma Centre for inviting us to be part of this event, and to Hugh Lane Gallery for hosting us. Thank you also to Kate Gray at Offaly County Council who has been hugely supportive of this project, and who joined us at the Hugh Lane Gallery on the day.
