Courses
Three times a year, Honeybee Folk School hosts gatherings, in a festival format, where makers of all levels will come together for inspiring, creative workshops and courses. Choose from half-day to multi-day workshops in a variety of subjects. Courses take place at the New Brunswick College of Craft & Design in scenic downtown Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada or with local partners such as Odell Park, Hayes Teaching Farm, and Kings Landing.
Honeybee Folk School also offers multi-week evening classes throughout the year, beginning the week after our seasonal gatherings have come to a close.
