John C. Campbell Folk School, no. 15 (May 1933)

Item
?

Item’s are ‘child’ level descriptions to ‘parent’ objects, (e.g. one page of a whole book).

  • John C. Campbell Folk School published a series of newsletters from 1926 to 1950. Written like a letter from the school's director, the newsletter is a source of information about the classes and activities at the Folk School and their impact on the surrounding community. In this issue, news of the financial strain of the Depression continues, but the Folk School remains positive during the winter course of classes. Reports about the classes include discussions about national politics, how students write and perform original plays, Nina Bryan instructing girls in home economics practices, and Leon Deschamps working with boys in fieldwork and surveying. Woodcarvers are significantly noted to be largely from the community, not necessarily students from the Folk School. Also of note during this time of financial hardship is how lucrative carving is for families who depend on the craft to supplement their income. Included are photographs of Folk School students and the surrounding landscape.
