The Courageous Men of Cavan is a community arts project 5 years in the making, with creativity and wellness at the centre. 800 hearts were created by the wider Cavan community, one for every Cavan man that fought and died during WW1. The hearts will be exhibited in Cavan County Museum for the next year.

The project aims to foster a sense of connection and gratitude, bridging generations through the poignant memories of those who fought and endured the Great War.

Exhibition launch at 2.30pm, the exhibition will run until Summer 2026.
