ABOUT ACS

The Arkansas Craft School (ACS) offers classes year-round in wood, metal, glass, clay, photography, jewelry, fiber and studio arts, in addition to hosting other types of workshops or events highlighting further creative talents.  A nonprofit 501(c)3 organization, the ACS is dedicated to the growth, appreciation, and instruction of arts and crafts in this region and beyond.

Our courses are taught by highly skilled artists/instructors, many of whom are Arkansas -based and known across the country for their expertise in their craft. Our classes are small in size to allow for ample individualized instruction and provide hands-on, engaged learning in a fun, creative environment.

Students come away from classes with creations to be proud of, crafted by their own hands and with the skills to continue their creative process. Studio passes are available on a select basis for those who wish to continue honing their skill set in one of our specialty studios, using our equipment.

The ACS is supported in part by the Arkansas Arts Council, an agency of the Department of Arkansas Heritage, the Windgate Charitable Foundation, Stone Bank, and our donors.
