Take Action
Get involved, help out, volunteer, suggest classes or instructors or become a donor. Help us spread the gift of local craft and education.
Folk Means People
To attach the phrase “folk school” to an organization is to connect to a rich heritage of folk schools and folk education. The defining element that makes folk schools unique and powerful resides in a school's mission. Folk schools, no matter what form they take, aim to strengthen communities. We believe that offering opportunities to make with our hands and explore the outdoors will lead to a lot of fun, learning and support for our many local artisans.
We are very grateful to our supporters and for these grants:
Northwest MN Arts Council: to provide quality teachers and materials for superior classes at affordable prices.
NW Minnesota Foundations Grant: To support our programing, Materials and instructors.
Some activities are possible by a grant provided by Minnesota State Arts Board through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
