Learn with Dogwood Crafters

Join us for some new classes as well as some favorites from years before.

Unless otherwise specified, classes are held in the Dillsoro Annex at 31 Front Street, across from the Dillsboro Town Hall with lots of parking. This is a new location for our classes.

To register for any class stop by or call Dogwood Crafters at 828-586-2248. Please have your name, phone number and email (optional) ready to register. Normally registration deadline is a week before the class. Class fees are paid on the day of the class. All payments must be in cash (no credit cards). The volunteer instructors work hard to keep the cost low, but due to rising costs in supplies and fees you may see an increase in the class fees. The class fees cover the use of the Masonic Lodge (when classes are held there). Our classes are offered to fulfill our 501(c)(3) nonprofit status.
