Our new location at the corner of Franklin St and Orange Ave. means we will have more space for workshops and classes, a separate clay center for our clay studio members, ADA accessibility, and many more exciting changes to help us grow and bring so much more to the community! We will resume our after school program the last week of January 2023 so that we can avoid the chaos of unpacking and settling in with kids in the studio.
Are you interested in finding out more about our after school program or do you have a student to recommend for one of our scholarships? Please contact us!
Did you know Mississippi School of Folk Arts is a federal 501(c)3 Not for Profit Business and a Registered Mississippi Charity? Your $25 gift provides the support we need to expand our operations and is tax deductible.
Your thoughtful gift helps us reach a wider audience to bring the arts to those who have the least access to it. The pandemic slowed down our community outreach but we are ready to open our doors to more students, both children and adults, those with special needs, and the underserved in our community.
We currently provide several scholarships to local grade school students. Some of these are funded by generous sponsors but we currently have students attending simply because of the generosity of our instructors. Would you like to sponsor a child? Click the button above to donate to help cover the instructor fees for these students or reach out to us to help in other ways.
