Revisiting Bladesmith Sam Gleeson and His Vision for Ireland’s First Craft School | WAMCAST #0092
Manage episode 446562278 series 3475385
Our travels continued in Ireland where we travelled to see a maker who we've featured previously - Sam Gleeson, a Bladesmith from County Clare, Ireland We believe it’s essential to document the evolution of these artisans, offering insights into their journeys and progress. A story that particularly caught our attention and wanted to hear more about was Sam Gleeson’s endeavour to establish a craft school in Ireland, a project he hinted at back in Edition One in 2020. With a scarcity of craft schools available, and nothing else like it in Ireland, it’s crucial to support individuals like Sam who are dedicated to preserving traditional skills and providing the next generation with opportunities to explore craft as a viable career path. We caught up with Sam to learn about the developments in both his professional and personal life since 2020. It’s clear he’s been incredibly active, balancing family commitments with ambitious business goals - we hope you enjoy our conversation! WANT TO SUPPORT THIS PODCAST?
