🌟 Stars of the Show! 🌟
What a fantastic evening was held in Navan Library on May 12th celebrating the amazing participants of the Stay Up All Night Film & Drama Hub with a special screening of their wonderful docu-film 🎬✨
Families, facilitators, representatives from Meath County Council and Down Syndrome Ireland all came together for a memorable Oscars-style night hosted by the brilliant Fred Cooke. Everyone involved truly were the stars of the show! ⭐
Running from January to May 2026, the project gave adults with additional needs the opportunity to explore acting, storytelling and video production while creating original films focused on friendships, bullying and socialising.
This incredible programme grew from the Stay Up All Night Book Club in Navan Library and was made possible through the collaboration of Fiona MacGinty O’Neill, Fabien MacGinty O’Neill, Meath County Council Library Service, Meath County Council CreativeIrl Programme and Down Syndrome Ireland.
Congratulations to all participants on their creativity, confidence, hard work and fantastic achievements. We are so proud of you all ❤️
Enjoy some fantastic photos from a very special night! 📸
