What will your gift do?
Make A Difference
When Olde School Artistry can provide the necessities (sewing machines, crochet hooks, spinning wheels, looms, venue costs, fabric, yarn, and more), it means that students can learn without the burden of extra expenses. Your donation helps provide everything we need for teaching and inspiring new students.
Give Access
Without the work of Olde School Artistry, many people may never have access to this unique learning opportunity. We aren’t just waiting for students to come to us. We are going out, forming partnerships in the community, and seeking out new audiences. Our desire is for everyone to have the opportunity to learn.
Create A Lasting Impact
We are working to preserve traditional craft skills and restore American textile production. It starts with giving people the chance to encounter these crafts and the opportunity to learn. As skills and passions are uncovered, these people have the potential to become the producers and artisans that help us grow a strong future for American craftsmanship.
When you choose to give, you enable us to teach more people and spread the joy and satisfaction of creative, hands-on work.
