We held a very successful ‘Just for Fun Day‘ as part of our Routes to Resilience programme in the Cultúrlann McAdam Ó Fiaich Falls Road on the 27th Oct 2017.
The Just For Fun Day included participants from The Falls Women’s Centre, The Chinese Community and the Local Community of the Falls Road.
Adults, children and young people all enjoyed the activities from face painting, arts & crafts, a Magic show and even had the opportunity to experience creative digital media activities from Virtual Reality to special film effects. Not forgetting a good old chitchat with a cup of tea.
