Appalachian Center for Craft
Fall and Spring Workshops
NEW Online Workshops!
The Appalachian Center for Craft is now offering hands-on workshops through ZOOM!
Participants will meet with instructors during live Zoom sessions. Sessions will include
demonstrations, tips, techniques and advice on specific topics and projects. Students
will have time to practice techniques or complete projects on their own and will reconvene
through Zoom to ask questions, get advice, troubleshoot or to share completed work.
Each virtual workshop will vary in length – some will take place over the course of
a day, an evening, several evenings or weekends. Be sure to look for details listed
with each workshop.
Depending upon the workshop, participants will be able to purchase kits of materials
during registration or may choose to purchase materials on their own. In either case,
ACC will provide a complete list of materials, tools and equipment necessary to complete
the workshop. In addition, we will let you know where best to participate – a desk,
a studio, a large table. We want you to be fully prepared to successfully and easily
complete your workshop(s).
Browse our offerings below and feel free to reach out if you have questions or requests
for workshops. Email Gail Gentry at ggentry@tntech.edu
