Help us stop it!

Hi,

We've just been alerted to the fact that the Droichead Art Centre (Stockwell Street, Drogheda, Co. Louth) will be hosting an exhibition by Seamus Nolan, in which 2 live dogs are kept in pens, called "If Art Could Save Your Life". The dogs will be kept on display from 10am - 5pm, everyday, from wed. 25th Feb. - 20th March. What's even more shocking is the fact that the local dog pound actually gave the dogs to them, willingly, for the exhibition. For more info see: http://www.droicheadartscentre.com/whats-on/index.php?i...e_289

Please contact the following, asking that the dogs be removed and the exhibition cancelled immediately:
