"Memory Grove" in Ballymun

Qualitymark · 2015-10-23 09:54:37

Remember the "Memory Grove" plan for a grove of trees in Ballymun to commemorate the 1916 leaders. Back in 2005. http://www.brl.ie/pdf/Nletter_47_web.pdf Apparently they're reviving the idea. Anyone know how much was donated, and what's happened to it in the last 10 years, and what happened to the plan before now?

brl blew all their funding and no longer exist, gerz is the german guy who planted a load of tree saplings with crappy low quality plaques in front of them that people payed for, hopefully he has nothing to do with any revival of the memory grove

Every arts project that BRL initiated came across as a funding scam
