The An Fraughan book commemorates the ecosocial art project (also called An Fraughan) that ran in the three South Carlow national schools of St. Brendan’s, Drummond, Scoil Moling, Glynn and St. Michael’s, Newtown in 2019.

Funded by Creative Ireland with the support of Carlow Arts Office and the Drummin Bog Project, An Fraughan connected this very special Carlow environment with its surrounding young people through inclusive, participatory arts activities.

Participating artist Jules Michael has combined documentary photographs from the children’s creativity, their exhibition in Drummond Hall and Drummin Bog itself together into book form. The book includes an essay by Dr. Cathy Fitzgerald, whose ecosocial art theories supported this project. The An Fraughan book is available (at no cost) as an eBook through The Drummin Bog Project website. A hard copy book is also available to order individually in the Blurb 'print on demand' format. Hard-copy costs listed here are not-for-profit and solely cover the Blurb fee, plus postage.
