The Continuing Education program is designed to provide courses, seminars and workshops that contribute to the community’s overall cultural, civic and intellectual growth.  Classes serve all talent levels from the beginner to the advanced maker. Celebrated local and national professionals and craft educators teach here in our professionally equipped studios. The purpose of the Community Education program is to provide lifelong learning.

We welcome students from next door to across the country.  We have individuals that make our campus their vacation destination to participate in workshops and classes, or are lucky enough to have this amazing resource in their backyard.  Continuing education classes vary in price depending on class length and cost of materials, but remain the same for each participant regardless of residency.

Haywood Community College offers courses in fiber, clay, metals/jewelry, hand wrought metals, woodcarving, wood furniture construction, stained glass, basketry, seasonal floral design, painting, music, computer design, photography and so much more.  We hope to see you on campus soon!
