Classes for Your Artists!

Kids can "Come Do" at our Young Artists classes

Kids love to create and "do" in an environment that encourages creativity and fun. Young artists can play, see and do as they participate in the wonderful programs CraftWorks offers; from our Mini-Modern Masters (6-9 year olds), to our Modern Masters (9-12 year olds) and more. Gift your children with the experience of our enriching summer programs. And see them smile!

Advancing Artists

Our Advancing Artists program is dedicated to helping artisans and artists develop the business and marketing skills to grow their arts business. This new series, Your Art, Your Business, launches in October. Whether you are a full-time crafter or part-time one, just starting out, or have taken up your art as a second career (or third!), this series can help. The schedule will be posted soon.

Autumn is Here!

It's a great time to jump into action with a CraftWorks class. Sheila Brannan is teaching a few Stained Glass workshops, including a "get your feet wet" experience in which you can produce a reflective, beautiful sun-catcher. Isabelle Truchon is offering the popular Monogram class once more for those of you who could not make it in May.Teaching Artist Josef Beery is offering an outstanding Woodcut Block Printing class on September 11th and 12th, this is an awesome opportunity, reserve your spot early!
Whatever class you decide to take, don't let  summer go by without fulfilling your desire to grow and to learn something you've always wanted to.

CraftWorks now has two locations to serve you, at Cool Spring and Shepherdstown's In Town Studio. Check it out, and Come Do!
