Moon Tell Me Truth is a travelling exhibition of 60 illustrated poems created by children aged 9 to 15 from Gaza, Palestine, Argentina, India and Spain for a competition run by the British educational charity The Hands Up Project, and published in a book with a foreword by award-winning poet Alice Oswald. The poems have been exhibited throughout England and Scotland and in Belfast.

"The exhibition is hosted by the INTO Palestine Ambassadors Group and will be open to the general public but with a special invitation to students from all primary and post-primary schools. We hope that teachers will take the opportunity to take their classes to this exhibition and provide them with the chance to read and respond to the voices of the innocent children of Gaza living through Apartheid and the recent bombardment of their homeland.

We believe this exhibition will provide a unique opportunity for Irish primary and post-primary pupils to respond to the Gazan children’s poetry – through words and/or art – thus enhancing the viewers’ experience and further developing a sense of empathy with the innocent children of Gaza who need our solidarity and compassion during these times."
