Our doors maybe closed, but our Hearts are always Open.
We want to create the biggest gallery of Doortraits in Ireland to document this Covid19 period that will forever be marked in history.
Help us to get to 200,000 Doortraits to help us to support the 200,000 people living with Cancer in Ireland today.
The idea was started by the talented photographer Katie Kavanagh in Dublin 8, now let’s take it nationwide & Support Cancer patients at the same time!
