Mural Painting at Dunbar Community Center, Springfield

This historic mural was jointly painted by two artists whose communities were previously at war in the north of Ireland/Northern Ireland: Danny Devenny, former Irish Republican Army (IRA) prisoner, and Mark Ervine, son of David Ervine, former Progressive Unionist Party leader and Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) member. This unique step comes on the heels of the historic powersharing in government that began in May 2007, after nine years of struggle to implement the Good Friday Agreement.
