Support Scholarship Opportunities
We are committed to making our arts programming accessible for all! Support our scholarships to provide financial assistance to students seeking to attend an Arrowmont workshop.
Friends of Arrowmont supports scholarships for students that need financial assistance to attend Arrowmont workshops. You help us continue to preserve the tradition of Appalachia folk arts and crafts by making it accessible to all.
When you give $50 or more to the FOA scholarship fund, you will receive a Friends of Arrowmont t-shirt featuring a new, original design each year.
All Friends of Arrowmont receive our electronic newsletter and regular communications so you’ll be among the first to know about upcoming events and new programming offers. Strengthen your connection to the creative community by joining and interacting with other like-minded supporters, artists, and makers.
For over a century, Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts has been a welcoming escape for anyone who is interested in enhancing their artistic skills. One group we’re particularly proud to serve are veterans. We are honored to welcome former servicemen and women to our Gatlinburg campus each year, many of them through veteran scholarships.
Join Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts and Ole Smoky Distillery in providing healing arts and crafts experiences for veteran servicemen and women.
