School Notes:

  • The New England Craft Program is located in Williamsburg, Massachusetts in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains. We are in the heart of the Pioneer Valley which is home to a large number of the country's most prominent master craftspeople and very close to the five-college community of Northampton and Amherst.
  • Our extensive and professionally equipped studios and our living space are a blend of a 1700's farm and contemporary, architect-designed structures set amidst 50 acres of New England hills and pastures. Snow Farm's four living modules are designed as a series of double rooms each of which opens out onto a large outdoor deck. The kitchen is a focal point of Snow Farm with great, wholesome food made from fresh ingredients. Each meal reflects the same intimacy and caring found throughout the program and the formal and informal participation in the kitchen creates a real sense of community.
  • The programs of study includes: Ceramics, Drawing and Color, Photography, Textile Art, Metalsmithing & Jewelry Construction, Glassblowing, Glass Flameworking & Welding.
