Arbutus Folk School is an art and craft center bringing our community hands-on experiences in ceramics, woodworking, fiber arts, and more. 

Our classes are not just about learning how to throw pots on the wheel or warp a loom, but also meeting and connecting with local artists and fellow community members through this shared experience. 

In 2023 we filled over 1,900 seats in our craft classes and studio sessions, and engaged several hundred more community members in concerts and other cultural events. These experiences build community, expand creativity, and forge empowerment through new skills and knowledge. 

Contributions to Arbutus Folk School will support:

  • Scholarships and reduced-cost classes & events
  • Special programs and guest artists & performers
  • Artist residency programs for local emerging artists
  • Expanded classes and outreach
  • Purchasing supplies, tools, and equipment
  • Investing in our equipment and facilities
  • Increasing youth offerings and partnerships

Thank you for your support of our mission to enrich lives and build community through experiential learning in arts, craft, and culture!
