The event will take place on 25 October from 12.00pm to 7.00pm at Seven Towers Leisure Centre, Ballymena.
A full planning application is currently in progress for the 'Community Connections' project. The new space which will include a sensory garden and an interactive area, is proposed to create a shared place for community activity. Plans for the interpretative area also include the construction of a replica Clock Tower that once stood on the site, using brick salvaged from buildings previously occupying the site.

Plans also include upgrading the path and carriageway network along with a new mobility hub. A new pedestrian and cycle bridge over the River Braid will extend these connections into the recreational parkland around the Ecos Hub.
The Department for Communities is leading the project and has already began work by opening the St Patrick's Link road to the site.
In addition to the 'Community Connections' project Council are also developing proposals for three new buildings at St Patrick's; the i4C Innovation and Cleantech Centre; a leisure, health and wellbeing centre and an office building.
Radius Housing is progressing with their new development at St Patrick's which will see construction of 135 mixed tenure residential properties. Northern Regional College also continues to make progress with their new campus at Farm Lodge.
