"Since becoming Night-Time Economy Advisor for Sligo Town, I've been genuinely impressed by the talent and creativity of young local artists — from an improvised play inspired by the Pooka to a rendition of a Mean Girls musical number that could rival Adele. Events like this matter. They give young people a platform and a place and are made possible thanks to the brilliant year-round work of local youth and arts organisations." - Edel Doran, Sligo Town Night Time Economy Advisor

“As someone who performed throughout my school years, I understand just how valuable such experiences are for nurturing youth development. This fuels my passion to work on projects and create exciting events for teenagers to connect with like minded peers.
