My Home Place

‘My Home Place’ – a series of 10 programmes featuring memories of times gone by and includes accounts of cultural events and nostalgic anecdotes that captures the importance of our local heritage.
The accompanying drawings to each of the recordings have been made by students attending art class at Ossory Youth, Kilkenny who drew them in response to the imagery they heard in each of the pieces.
‘My Home Place’ made in collaboration with the Heritage Office in Kilkenny County Council as part of the Keep Well campaign, an initiative of the Government of Ireland, Healthy Ireland & Slaintecare.
