Coming together
January was also a month of coming together and celebrating in the community.
The late, great Kilkenny health campaigner Vicky Phelan unveiled a portrait painting in Mooncoin Parish Hall, ahead of a national tour.
Present for the launch in her native Mooncoin, Vicky spoke about the painting and her journey, having recently returned from the US. Friends, family and neighbours gathered for the event.
The Triptych portrait was painted by Irish artist Vincent Devine, who was inspired by Vicky’s incredible courage. His aim was to convey the tragedies and the joys in Vicky’s life, through symbolism in the anatomy of her body and different objects.
There was great celebration when one lotto player in Kilkenny scooped the €250,000 prize after purchasing their winning Lotto Quick Pick ticket on Friday, January 14 in Kitty’s Cabin on Rose Inn Street.
