On Saturday 11 May 2012 at 2pm, the IPSC will hold a ‘Moving Gallery’, where people will walk from St. Stephen’s Green (Grafton St entrance) to the Spire on O’Connell Street carrying large photographs from Al Nakba and Palestinian flags

The event will take place to commemorate what Palestinians call Nakba Day which marks the 65th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba (‘Catastrophe’) which saw the expulsion of over 700,000 Palestinians, forcibly uprooted from their homeland in an act of ethnic cleansing that facilitated the foundation of the State of Israel

We are assembling at 2pm at the Grafton Street entrance to St. Stephens’ Green, and will set off down Grafton St towards the Spire.
