Due to ongoing works at The Tholsel, the weekly vigils will move to a new location in Kilkenny City
Due to ongoing works taking place at The Tholsel in Kilkenny City, the ‘Kilkenny Community Palestine Solidarity’ group will move their weekly vigils to The Parade from Wednesday, April 23 (5.30pm).
The weekly gatherings have drawn together people from all backgrounds who care about human rights and who wish to keep attention on the suffering in Palestine.
“For over a year and a half, we’ve gathered there, rain or shine, as a peaceful and visible act of solidarity, remembrance, and a call for Palestinian justice,” a spokesperson for the group said.
“This move to a new location serves both as a reflection of our ongoing commitment and as an invitation for others to join us or learn more.”
