Join us for our event ‘Keep Doing What Matters – Creative Sparks’
18th Apr 2024
This year, we've partnered with AIB to curate a series of events to support you in doing what matters to you. Next up is Creative Sparks, a colourful, cultural evening with Louise McSharry and Jill & Gill.
Join us on Thursday, April 25 at the AIB Keep Doing What Matters – Creative Sparks event in partnership with IMAGE Media, for a very special evening of culture, conversation, and creativity.
On the night you’ll get to enjoy bubbles and charcuterie boards followed by a dynamic cultural conversation between broadcaster and writer Louise McSharry, creative duo Jill & Gill and IMAGE Editorial Director Dominique McMullan. Following the conversation you’ll have the opportunity to join a hands-on, colourful screen printing workshop with Jill & Gill, from which you will walk away with a framed, original collaborative art print, all of your own.
And, as an added bonus, feel good knowing that the full price of your ticket will be donated to FoodCloud, a valued charity partner of AIB.
AIB supports customers by offering financial advice at all life stages so you can keep doing what matters to you. To book a chat with an AIB advisor to get real guidance on how to use savings, pensions, and investments to build your financial future, simply visit www.aib.ie/make-a-plan.
