Drimnagh Community Arts & Sports Festival 2007
by Glenda Cimino
Festival Director
Dreaming Drimnagh: ‘Who dreams does most’

This year’s theme is ‘Dreaming Drimnagh,’ in which we will look at what Drimnagh has been, is now, and dream what it might be in the future. Our festival logo designed by graphic artist Tom McDonald, is partly the shape of Drimnagh today, and partly a magic carpet to take us into realisable dreams of old and new spaces, renewing old connections and making new connections with each other through the festival events.

This is an approximate guide to what will be going on this coming week in Drimnagh, with the help of the many people who are getting involved to make this festival happen.
