OLD-TIME & GEE'S BEND

During this workshop quilters, artists, and blacksmiths pursue their work in a beautiful, encouraging atmosphere while musicians fully immerse themselves in old-time music, their days and nights filled with classes taught by master musicians, jam sessions, concerts and group performances. Participants register for one class that includes six in-depth sessions in that discipline. 

Pricing is based on meals, lodging, and tuition:
