OLD-TIME MUSIC & CRAFT WEEKEND 2021

During this workshop bakers and blacksmiths pursue their work in a beautiful, encouraging atmosphere while musicians fully immerse themselves in old-time music, their days and nights filled with classes taught by master musicians, jam sessions, concerts and group performances. Participants register for one class that includes six in-depth sessions in that discipline. 

Pricing is based on meals, lodging, and tuition:

Lodging choices: Lodging for this event will be in Bethany Village. Participants will have the option to stay in a Bethany Lodge room or a dorm style cabin. Our lodge rooms each have two queen beds and a private bath that opens onto a common living space (shared by other students) with refrigerator, coffee maker, stove, microwave, and fireplace. You may book a private room for one or share a room with your spouse, partner, or friend. Cabins are dormitory style, each having 24 twin beds and community bathrooms with private showers and stalls. Pricing depends on your choice of lodging. All lodging options include refreshments on opening night and nine meals throughout the weekend starting with Thursday dinner through Sunday lunch.
