I visited the John C. Campbell Folk School just before the holidays when there were week long classes happening. I sat in most every class for 15-30 minutes to get a feel for what's being taught and how the instructors and students interact with each other and the medium they're working with. I'm not easily impressed and I found everything... More

Although I have never taken a class there, many of my friends have and have positive reports. I have visited the campus several times, and just to tour, step into a class, and visit the craft shop are all things I find quite interesting. It is a special place.

After talking to several people taking the banjo, basket weaving, and cooking classes it is definitely something to explore in the future! More

Every week the classes offered change. Every night there was entertainment, i. e. fiddle playing and contra dancing. The town is tiny but the area is just beautiful.... More

This has been my third stay at the Folk School, each time using the dormitory. The rooms consist of several twin beds which share one full bath. Dining is family style, with plenty of second helpings. I always gain at least a couple of pounds here. Course instruction is top-notch. I've taken two woodcarving courses plus one in beginning dulcimer.... More
