Testimonials

Arrowmont is truly craft heaven on earth. I value the staff and facilities deeply. I’m so grateful to feel welcomed and supported. The scholarship made it possible for me to come and I am incredibly thankful.

– Keela

The professionalism and care of the staff was clearly conveyed and felt wonderful. It led to the cultivation of a safe and supportive learning and sharing community. Thank you so much for this transformational learning experience through scholarship. It was a wonderful week!

– Paula

Thank you for the scholarship and opportunity to join the community here. This is my first time attending a craft school where I was not required to assist or work-trade as part of my scholarship. And although I have valued those experiences, it was amazing to have more time and energy to spend learning in the studio.

– Allie

I really had such a lovely time. I would not have been able to do this without the scholarship covering both tuition and room/board. I don’t come from a formal art education, so I was nervous coming here, but I feel like I’ve been in both challenging and comfortable spaces and grown and deepened my art practice as a result. I hope to come back soon.

– Shelby
