| Watering the Folk School's garden |
Work Study Students live as a group at the Folk School for nine weeks. During the nine-week session they work five of the weeks and take weeklong classes for four of the weeks. They are also eligible for weekend classes on a space-available basis. Work Studies receive room and board during their stay and have access to the full range of classes listed in the catalog with tuition covered (note: materials fees are specific to each class and are the responsibility of the student).
We are currently accepting applications for the following sessions:
Session 8: August 11 - October 12 (deadline June 15)
Session 9: September 22 - November 23 (deadline June 15)
Session 10: October 13 - December 14 (deadline June 15)
At this time there is only one Work Exchange option available:
Garden Crew
Garden Crew work is mostly outdoors on the gardens and grounds, but there are other duties as well which may include weekends. Garden Crew participants must be in good physical condition and be able to perform occasional strenuous tasks in a variety of weather conditions.
How to Apply
