You may have seen SCÉAL in the Balbriggan parade! SCÉAL in Irish translates to STORY in english, but our collective also has an acronym for SCÉAL: Sustaining Creative Ecology Arts & Living.
Our project in the parade was to scramble letters from the Irish language and then have them come together to form these words:
Glas (Green)
Crann (Treeá
Uisce (Water)
Gaoth (Wind)
We hope you enjoyed the experience! Slán!
