Junior Cycle Art JCSP trip to Jerpoint Abbey and @JerpointGlass Studios. Art students had a wonderful day learning about the architecture in Jerpoint Abbey, and then got to experience a working glass studio, where students got to observe master craftsmen at work. #activelearning

Beautiful foxgloves, a vibrant orange garden spiral (handmade by Rory) and a potato field, under the backdrop of the Leinster Hills. What a place to come to work!

Couldn’t be prouder of the other half, Rory. @JerpointGlass Completed his first Wicklow Way Race 127km in 17hrs 51mins. 22nd place out of 100! Simply the best. He made a new race buddy too, David Fagan, they crossed the line together.

Every piece of Jerpoint is handmade and finished by hand at our Studio in #Kilkenny. A hand-finished piece is more durable, softer to drink from and carries with it the skill and passion of its maker. Free demos midweek; all are welcome to watch.
