The Children’s Grief Centre unveils stunning new art installation by Ohhi Ohno/LuLu in teenage support rooms
Local children’s charity The Children’s Grief Centre is proud to unveil a stunning new installation of artwork by renowned Limerick-based artist Ohhi Ohno/ LuLu, whose vibrant creations are already a familiar sight throughout several buildings across the city’s streets.
The new artwork, displayed proudly at the charity’s city-centre location, is set to become a lasting feature that will inspire generations to come.
The project, made possible by the generous support of the AIB Community Fund and the dedicated staff of AIB, focused on enhancing the charity’s teenage support rooms. Through a unique and thoughtful collaboration, the design process included input from the teenagers who attend the centre for support services — resulting in the rooms having a deep sense of safety, calm, and comforting familiarity.”

“We are absolutely thrilled to have Lulu’s work in our space,” said Carol Fitz-Gough, Fundraising & Events Coordinator for the charity. LuLu has a true understanding of our work with children and young people who have experienced a loss in their lives.
“Her art brings a gentle sense of calm to our centre — a comforting presence that holds special meaning, especially for those who carry the weight of childhood loss.
The charity extended its heartfelt thanks to AIB and its staff for nominating them for funding. Their support made this transformative project possible.
“This is more than just a refurbishment,” Carol added. “It’s a celebration of creativity, youth empowerment, and community partnership.”
The artwork will remain a permanent feature at the charity, standing as a testament to the power of collaboration between local artists, youth, and community supporters.
