VILLAGE Festival was held in Moyvane last weekend, the weather
on Sunday was cold and showery and attendances were back, but
for the people who attended there was plenty to keep them
occupied. The Community Centre was the focal point with vintage
display, craft and baking exhibition and Dog Show.
We should appreciate that a French woman attended and had an
exhibition of her artwork. Ghislane Giustiniani of Burgundy says
she loves Ireland that is the reason she is here, see her
display at St John’s in Listowel. Lets not forget our own school
children who had a display of their artwork in the foyer of the
