An Siopa Áitúil - the Village Shops project launched during National Heritage Week 2025.
A large attentive audience gathered in Killeen Community Centre to hear speakers from Louisburgh-Killeen Heritage, Louisburgh Community Futures, Killeen Community Council, Climate Action Louisburgh Locality, and watch demonstrations from local artisans. We also had a huge display of items from shops both in Louisburgh village and the surrounding community shops that once were in operation.
A very interesting afternoon looking at how this collaborative year long project will endeavour to demonstrate the significant role of village shops and shopping locally in preserving community resilience and food security and identify ways that aspects of these systems might be re-introduced into modern society to help communities live more sustainably.
This is a collaborative project between Killeen Community Council, Louisburgh-Killeen Heritage, Louisburgh Community Futures, Louisburgh Tidy Towns and CALL-Climate Action Louisburgh Locality. Generously funded by The Sunflower Charitable Foundation and supported by the Glaze Foundation, Glo Maigh Eo and LAWPRO.
