Some of the activities that take place are Fiber Art Mixed Media, Book Making, Basketry, Knitting, Crocheting, weaving, Rug Hooking, Collage, Dyeing, Paper Arts, Quilting.
• The Paper Canvas Art Studio features workspace for Oil, Watercolor and Acrylic artists to pursue their art. Asheville area art instructors teach monthly workshops. There is also an active paper canvas meet-up group that offers a social opportunity for resident artists to give and get feedback and affirmations from other resident artists.
• The Pottery Studio is fully equipped to create functional and sculptural ceramics. A full complement of tools, glazes and a variety of clays are available to create hand built or wheel thrown pottery. The studio also features a full size kiln for bisque and glaze ring.
