RE-IMAGE

Following on from the Disrupt programme with the winning pitch to Re-Image an area within Strabane Town, a new Re-Image programme is being developed.

Leading the way, Sean Kelly, Christopher McGrath and James Burke have identified the Canal Basin to be Re-Imaged with street art, planting, lighting and creative seating with the hope to create a safe inviting space to the young people of Strabane providing them with a sense of belonging and ownership within the community.
