Working alongside local schools, businesses, and community groups, the project will bring people together to create a series of <strong>blue dot mosaics<\/strong> that highlight the importance of water quality and our shared connection to the landscape.<\/p>\n<p>The project includes plans for <strong>hands-on workshops<\/strong> with children from <strong>Killeen NS<\/strong> and <strong>Louisburgh NS<\/strong>, who will create mosaics using jam jar lids they\u2019ve collected. These will be assembled into a large display panel, which will be exhibited in the atrium of <strong>Books at One. <\/strong>Annaliese will also create a mosaic panel for a new sign at <strong>Scott\u2019s Island<\/strong>, introducing the project and featuring a QR code linking to more information. <strong>Transition Year students<\/strong> will help install slate mosaic pieces at selected locations across the catchment\u2014bringing the artwork into the landscape itself. Some details, including final locations and permissions, are still being worked out in collaboration with local partners.<\/p>\n<p>At its heart, this project is about <strong>community creativity and collaboration<\/strong>.
