Inspiring the hands, the heart and the mind.
Folk schools emphasize learning for the sake of learning. There are no exams, no credits, and no term papers. As much as our courses teach a particular skill (timberframing, basketmaking), they also encourage lifelong learning.
Okanagan Folk School’s mission is rooted in the community. Our programs empower and affirm by celebrating curiosity and open doors to the world of arts and craft and nurturing self-discovery.
The Okanagan Folk School’s efforts are directly connected to the Okanagan Valley, its beauty, history, and productivity. The mountains, the lakes, First Nations culture, agriculture, and incredibly talented community members influence our programs.
The Okanagan Folk School pursues integrity and quality at every level. We pursue our mission with pride and purpose. Our institutional approach reflects our commitment to craft, to community and to the joy of hands-on learning.
These courses connect the past, the present and the future. Maintaining and perpetuating the future of craft, celebrating time-tested methods, and exploring the world’s need for sustainable solutions. Take a course.
