Explore Craft Through Immersion 2027

Join us for a six-week sampler program, working with more than ten heritage crafts, to first try and then discover what sparks your inspiration to explore further. 

Wild Arts Broom Making Groundfolk

The Wild Arts Immersion Experience is a unique opportunity for hands-on learning in a variety of heritage crafts, allowing participants to explore a range of interests before making larger investments of time and resources. It is a gateway option to try an impressive list of skills and learn what is required to pursue those skills. With six weeks of full immersion, guided by expert instructors, you will walk away with a solid foundation upon which to build ideas for future endeavors. No prior experience necessary!

"At Wild Arts Learning, our focus is more than craft and skill alone; we are committed to materials literacy and understanding where the things we use to create come from, their impact on the land, our waterways, wildlife, the very air we breathe, and our fellow humans. 
​
Students are challenged to think and act responsibly, make educated choices, and be intentional in each of their creative endeavors. We encourage art and craft to be brought into the world in such ways that honor the very places in which they exist. We don't have it all figured out, but in like-minded community with a common purpose, we can work to be better every day!"
