Our new series of online programming includes short online demonstrations and immersive online workshops. Join us to engage with Penland’s unique approach to teaching and learning in community—from wherever you are in the world, and wherever you are in your artistic journey!
Please contact [email protected] with questions.
Penland’s online programming initiatives are funded in part by a grant from South Arts with support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. We are deeply grateful to both these organizations, as well as the many individual friends and supporters who have helped Penland adapt and deliver our mission in new ways.
