Building on research and community engagement carried out in Mulranny since 2022, this innovative project will use creative and participatory approaches to help people explore, document, and better understand their local coastal environment. Working in partnership with Mulranny Community Futures, the initiative aims to encourage meaningful community involvement in conversations around climate resilience, environmental stewardship, and the future of Mulranny's coastline.

The project will bring together local residents of all ages to take part in a series of hands-on workshops combining walking, mapping, photography, and creative observation. Participants will become "citizen scientists", exploring the coastal landscape, recording their own observations, and contributing valuable local knowledge alongside technical environmental data.

Through accessible photography workshops, participants will learn techniques such as fixed-point and repeat photography, creating visual records that capture both everyday experiences and environmental change. Using a range of equipment, from mobile phones to digital cameras, the workshops will ensure broad participation regardless of experience or skill level.

The project will culminate in a public exhibition showcasing the maps, photographs, and perspectives gathered throughout the programme. Celebrating the coast as both a natural and cultural asset, the exhibition will highlight the value of community knowledge and demonstrate how creative engage
