Folk School Celebrates Appalachian Region -- Brasstown, NC 28902 -- May 29 - June 4, 2005
Posted by johndilbeck on Saturday, May 7 2005 at 12:01 PM

(Context Tag: Brasstown NC) John C. Campbell Folk School will offer 14 classes celebrating the history and creativity of the Appalachian region from Sunday, May 29, 2005, through Saturday, June 4, 2005.
Coinciding with the Folk School's Appalachian Heritage Week is its inclusion in National Geographic's Map Guide to Appalachia. Released in the April edition of National Geographic and on the National Geographic website, the interactive map of Appalachia was developed with the Appalachian Regional Commission and features notable sites in the 13 states comprising the Appalachian region.
"The folk school is right in the middle of National Geographic's first tourist map, celebrating Appalachia's creativity and history," said Jan Davidson, folk school director. "John C. Campbell was one of the creators of the concept of 'Appalachia' as a distinctive American region. He and his wife, Olive, one of our founders, drew the first map of the region early in the 20th century."
Program Manager Karen Beaty said the classes offered during the Appalachian Heritage Week are diverse and interesting.
"A student can come to the folk school and in one week learn to build a ladderback chair or to make some cozy socks," Beaty said. "They can experiment with Appalachian food in a cooking class or explore the rich stories of the area in a storytelling class."
Other classes offered during the week include basketmaking, blacksmithing, broommaking, chair caning and weaving, clogging, making fused glass, dulcimer playing, quilting, weaving, and woodcarving.
In addition to classes on Appalachian craft, cooking, and storytelling, students will receive a rounded experience of Appalachian culture during their stay at the folk school.
