255: Ireland Week: Making a living in rural Ireland with Cork potters Sara Roberts, Charlie Mahon, and Darren Francis Cassidy

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an
interview with members of the Society of Cork Potters: Sara
Roberts, Charlie Mahon, Darren Francis Cassidy. The group started
in the 1970’s with the aim to create the exchange of information
between ceramic artists working in County Cork. In our interview
we talk about making a living in rural Ireland, the value of
working with an artist group, and dealing with the effects of the
Great Financial Crisis. For more information on Sara visit
