The Reynolds Homestead is pleased to partner with Berea College to offer a series of heritage arts and crafts classes to honor the Appalachian traditions of Patrick County and the surrounding area. With generous funding from the Appalachian Fund, these classes offer master artisan instructors at very discounted prices. Most classes include all materials. Participation is limited to allow you to get the most of your time with these master teachers. Covid protocols will be observed as well.
