The Glucksman is delighted to welcome back for a second year the Lewis Glucksman Gallery Craft Fair. The craft fair will offer visitors the opportunity to view and purchase the unique craftwork of some of Ireland’s leading craftsmakers.
The gallery hosted its first craft fair in November 2008, Craft Fair 08 proved to be an immense success for the participating craftmakers and the gallery. This year the event will take place over two days and has been expanded to include all three gallery levels. A new element called Focus on Ceramics which will take place in the Sisk Gallery. The Glucksman selected four leading ceramicists Cormac Boydell, Jim Turner, Robert Lee and Sara Flynn, to showcase their work in the Sisk Gallery and to invite a further four ceramicists to join them. The participating ceramicists will give a series of talks and presentations over the weekend. More details will be posted here shortly.
Craft Fair 09 willalso feature textiles, prints, ceramics, woodturning, furniture, and jewellery with prices to suit every budget. With free admission, Craft Fair 09 is a fantastic opportunity for the public to acquire distinctive Irish crafts at affordable prices. In addition to the craft fair, the gallery has programmed a series of talks and presentations by the participating ceramicists in Focus on Ceramics. It is hoped these talks will introduce visitors to the processes that are involved in producing high quality ceramics
