It's like Erin said "we felt it was important to look at the small moments of beauty that exist in the everyday- as a way to shore ourselves up, to keep gratitude at the forefront, to remember what is precious and worth keeping"

Keep it lit 🔥

I think it's going to be really special but we need to make sure there's people there to see it so RTs much appreciated 👍🤘

We've brought together an amazing group of artists - look 👀👇

In every town, we want to honour the stories and voices that are already there, in a way that will hopefully galvanise us as we face increasing challenges in the wider world, it would be great if you could be part of that.

I’ve worked for years bringing poetry as a force to celebrate what we have right here right now in our lives in a positive way and this show is a new, focussed and exciting way to elevate that process.

I put this show together with Erin because I've been feeling more and more that in our outward looking, acquisitive culture and challenging context these days, what’s beautiful right in front of us can often get overlooked, even dismissed.

maybe you'd like to come to one of the shows (and even join us on stage!) and if not, maybe you can share this info with anyone who might benefit from buzzing along.

Howya! Could you help and spread the word about this show? Trying to spread good vibes and positivity through Ireland during these difficult times! Thanks!

The Show is called Every Blooming Thing

Hello, I've put together a show with brill pal Erin Fornoff and would love your help getting the word out so we can celebrate the everydays joys of Irish life with as many people as possible 🫡

Thanks!

DO NOT give your money to Jeff Bezos. He has plenty. Make a list of the books you want to buy as gifts and buy or order from a local bookstore...if you want those stores to continue to exist.

Still figuring it out but it feels good!

How's it going. 👋 If you're like me and into poetry, plays, any type of writing really, say hello! I'm new to Blue sky and looking forward to new connections. ✊
