Huge Congratulations to the 2024 Cavan Credit Union Art Competition winners!

All of our applicants showcased outstanding creativity and imagination!

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who entered, and all the brilliant support from schools and parents.

The theme of the 2024 Credit Union Art Competition was  ‘The Joys of Life’.

Life is a journey filled with moments of happiness, wonder, and fulfilment. The theme “The Joys of Life” celebrates the beauty found in everyday experiences, from simple pleasures to grand milestones.

This theme highlights gratitude, positivity, and the appreciation of life’s small and big moments. Whether through love, nature, creativity, or personal growth, “The Joys of Life” reminds us that happiness is not just in the destination but in the journey itself. This theme was perfectly curated throughout each and every piece of art that was submitted.
