A new piece of public artwork is expected to enhance the appeal of a North Clare village for both locals and tourists while celebrating one of the region's most iconic figures. Kilfenora Tidy Towns has secured planning permission to erect a mural of 17th century aristocrat Máire Rua O'Brien on the east-facing wall of the Burren Sonas Steiner Kindergarten which is located on the village's main street. Liscannor-based artist will paint the mural which is expected to be in place before the end of the year. Edel Barry of Kilfenora Tidy Towns expects the impact it will have on the village to be significant.
