In this episode, Dr. Barbara Tucker takes a road trip to John C. Campbell Folk School. Located in Brasstown, NC, the Folk School offers year-round weeklong and weekend classes for adults in craft, art, music, dance, and more. It is the oldest and largest folk school in the United States and a non-profit adult educational organization based on non-competitive learning.
The Folk School staff welcomed Barbara and her friend Mary Sheetz, and in this episode she talks with Rachel Watson, 2-D Coordinator, and with several instructors and students. She visited in late July and hopes to return to this fascinating, charming, and creative place.
