SUMMARY:2026 RDS Craft Awards Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis exhibition marks a new partnership between the Royal Dublin Society and the National Museum of Ireland. \nCurated by Dee Morgan of the RDS\, the exhibition presents work by the 12 shortlisted makers from the 2026 RDS Craft Awards\, offering visitors an opportunity to experience some of the most exciting contemporary craft being produced in Ireland. \nThe shortlist features six emerging makers: Jack Ó Meara (Kenmare Needlepoint Lace)\, Camilla Hanney (Ceramics)\, Muck Murphy (Woodturning and Vernacular Furniture)\, Luke E. Holden (Glass)\, Sam Gleeson (Metalsmith and Knife Making) and Kate O’Neill (Sculpture\, Ceramics and Textiles). \nThey are joined by six established makers: Emma Bourke (Glass)\, Pierce Healy (Jewellery and Objects)\, Zsiri Melinda Dempsey (Ceramics)\, Andrea Spencer (Glass)\, Frances Crowe (Tapestry Weaving) and Róisín Pierce (Textile Design and Craft). \nSelected following a competitive call for applications from Ireland and internationally\, the shortlist spans disciplines including ceramics\, textiles\, wood\, glass\, metal\, jewellery\, weaving and lace\, reflecting the breadth of contemporary craft practice today. \nBy placing contemporary makers alongside Ireland’s material heritage\, the show highlights craft as a living\, evolving practice\, rooted in tradition and engaging with modern life. It also reconnects two institutions with shared roots\, with the National Museum of Ireland originating from collections transferred from the RDS in 1877. \n  \nFind out more here.
