    Lego ideas

    Have you bought some Lego from our Jack & Jill Boutiques lately? Click here to learn how to get the most fun out of them.

    Don Conroy Art Youtube

    Incognito Artist Don Conroy has started a Youtube channel for all ages to learn how to draw. So why not Draw with Don?

    Think you have what it takes to be an art expert after that?

    Incognito art sale is one fundraiser that hasn’t been cancelled, with the collection now online for viewing at www.incognito.ie and the sale happening on Friday 24th April.  Remember each piece of original art, all postcard size, costs €50 but you won’t know the identity of the artist until after you buy the art! With many well-known artists and a few rock stars involved, this is an amazing opportunity to buy a prized painting or simply a piece of artwork that you love while also supporting Jack & Jill.
