“Our resident artisans at the Ozark Folk Center State Park begin with talent and then have the opportunity to practice their crafts until they achieve mastery,” said Jeanette Larson, Craft Director at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. “Part of our mission at the park is to teach these crafts and perpetuate the tradition of fine Ozark craftsmanship. Our classes offer everyone a chance to learn these crafts hands-on, from a skilled crafts person and teacher.”
The Cabins at Dry Creek, located in the park, offer special rates on rooms for Ozark Folk School students staying more than five days. Book your stay when you call to register for your class.
The mission of Ozark Folk Center State Park is to perpetuate, present and promote the Ozark way of life in an educational and enjoyable manner; through craft demonstrations, musical programs, the Heritage Herb Garden, workshops and other special events.
