No pictures yet. Late last year my service provider changed the terms of my Blackberry contract so I now have to pay for email up and downloads so posting photos from my phone now cost way too much.
Unfortunately I didn’t even take any photos with my phone, but Heather did so I will be able to access her photos once I’m home. Or else I will post the URL to her photos if that’s okay with her.
So, to summarize the 5 days at John C. Campbell – what can I say? Southern hospitality at it’s best.
Everyone associated with the school was gracious, helpful and positive in their attitude.
The students were motivated, enthusiastic and willing to work hard. The amount of weaving that was accomplished during the week was awesome and students and teachers from other classes were amazed at how prolific the class was. ๐
Friday afternoon the classes had a display of their work so we could each see what had been happening in the other studios. During the week there were programs like Morningsong, movies, concerts. Or you could continue to work in your studio. (You can guess what the weavers were doing!)
Would I go back? Yes, I’m hoping to return next year, but perhaps not in January. I’d been hoping to leave the cold and snow behind but a storm blew in – it got very cold and it snowed several inches. The work study crew were presented with shovels their first day and spent the better part of Monday and Tuesday shoveling the many paths through the school campus.
If you’ve ever thought about taking a class at JCC, it’s a great atmosphere, well stocked and equipped studios with great instructors (even if I do say so myself). :^)
I am now staying with friends for a few days before heading further south to Sarasota.
