A couple of months ago Sophie Hope joined the Rural School of Economics at the Scottish Sculpture Workshop and talked about everything except the workshop itself. This month Sophie talks with Sam Trotman, the Director of Scottish Sculpture Workshop, about the work SSW do in the rural community of Lumsden.

They focus on how SSW’s Community Making Space came about, who uses it and how they work with a wide range of makers, near and far.

They talk about working with wool, working with clay, and what’s for lunch.
