SCHOOLCHILDREN from Belfast are being encouraged to write a poem or submit a piece of artwork to run alongside a special exhibition that will take place in St Comgall’s in May. Moon Tell Me Truth is a collection of work by children from Gaza, who were asked to create an illustrated poem in response to two paintings by Palestinian artists as part of a competition run by the Hands Up Project. Visitors to St Comgall's will be able to see the two original artworks on display by Malak Mattar and Layla Mohammad Ibraheem Al Haj Abed and submit their own poem or piece of art – or both – for a competition to be judged at the end of the week by Leah Davis, artist in residence at The Duncairn, and Niamh McNally, Belfast-based poet. In a collaboration with local schools, pupils from Holy Evangelists Primary School and St Louise’s College have recorded many of the poems from the children in Gaza and these will be heard as part of the exhibition.
