Wild Acres Jewelry Retreat
I’ve had a number of friends take classes at the Wild Acres Retreat located in Little Switzerland, NC, and they rave, rave, rave about this place. Some day, I hope to make it there myself, but it’s a retreat, as in you will be staying there a while because most classes are about a week long. This is a retreat for all kinds of learning experience, not just jewelry:
In 1946, Wildacres was dedicated by I.D. and Madolyn Blumenthal to the betterment of human relations and interfaith dialogue.
Wildacres is situated on 1,600 acres at an elevation of 3,300 feet atop a mountain called Pompey’s Knob, near the Blue Ridge Parkway in Little Switzerland, North Carolina.
Wildacres is a conference center offering its facilities to non-profit groups which conduct educational or cultural programs and seminars.
We have a residency program that allows one guest to spend a week in our Owl’s Nest Cabin while concentrating on a project of his or her own.
