Paint Punch is a unique community-focused, youth arts programme started in Limerick which has seen young people create impressive works of art by punching paint onto boards with boxing gloves. The innovative project came about after Artist Frank McCarthy noticed how much young Traveller boys spoke about their passion for boxing in all their conversations. 

Frank joins Seán to discuss the project.
