Organiser Meg says, “I’m so thrilled to bring Creative Comforts to the Millcourt Mews, already a space so full of creativity and kindness. Creativity’s positive impact on our mental health is something very important to me and getting the opportunity to encourage this creativity in a space I love so much is something I’ll always cherish. I am endlessly grateful to Creative Ireland and Donegal County Council for making this possible.”
