Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts offers art classes and craft classes for
everyone from the novice to the professional. Craft education is the reason
and being for Arrowmont, and for over 50 years the school has dedicated its
resources to nurturing the creative talents of individuals. In 1945, 50
students attended the first summer craft workshops at Arrowmont, taught by
faculty from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. Each summer, as the
craft movement grew, the program offered more media choices and began to
focus its mission on a comprehensive art and craft school that would reach an
even larger number of students. In the new millennium, Arrowmont is committed
to remaining one of the leading international craft schools.
