One Family and EBS are inviting families in Westmeath to join them in celebrating the International Day of the Family in Ireland on Sunday, May 19. Throughout May, EBS are partnering with One Family, Ireland’s leading organisation for one-parent families, to encourage families in Westmeath to get involved in Family Day by hosting or attending an event in their area, celebrating with their family, or by entering the EBS Family Day art competition.
One Family and EBS is encouraging parents in Westmeath to get their kids involved in the art competition by painting or drawing a family picture. The Family Day art competition is open for entries until May 31 to young people up to the age of 18, with a prize of €500. Entries can be submitted at local EBS offices nationwide or emailed to [email protected]. Last year over 1,200 entered the art competition with their wonderful family portraits. This year’s theme is ‘My family is...’
This is the fourth year that EBS has partnered with One Family to acknowledge International Day of the Family.
Families can get ideas for an event or register by logging on to www.familyday.ie Organisations who want to get involved can log on to the website to explore a range of ideas for events including arts and crafts projects, storytelling events, and talks.
