A series of pop-up street artworks, which have been capturing the imagination of people across Limerick City, will play an important role in the coming weekend’s events as part of Riverfest.
The colourful works of art have had locals questioning whether the Treaty City has produced its own Banksy, but each of pieces have been painted with a plan in mind — a treasure hunt, which will take place over the May bank holiday weekend.
