ABOUT US

Fletcher Farm School is committed to making art accessible to everyone by offering workshops by teaching artists at reasonable cost. Workshops are intentionally kept small so every student has individual time with instructors for their best learning experience.

Our non-profit school is a 13,000 sq. ft. multi-arts facility located on a renovated historic farm just outside of a popular winter resort known for world-class outdoor recreation. Just close enough for fun, but just far enough to enjoy the quiet countryside. The school consists of nine indoor classrooms, a gift shop, an outdoor pavilion, and huge open fields with a remarkably picturesque Vermont farm setting. Connected and adjacent you’ll find a community farm, a brook with a small pond, and hiking trails. Across the street is the Black River where licensed trophy trout fishing is allowed. So while you’re not teaching, you’re on vacation!
The Nest is our collection of residential rooms, and are free to instructors while they are teaching on campus. Check us out, we are known throughout the region as the oldest residential Art and Craft School in Vermont.
