Studio Immersion on the Mountain

Shakerag Workshops is a group of one-week arts classes for adults held in June each year on the St. Andrew's-Sewanee campus, in Sewanee, Tennessee. Instructors from around the nation offer classes in basketry, book arts, clay, digital arts, felting, fiber, mixed media, and watercolor. Most participants, faculty, and staff stay on the campus, eating and working together for the week. After classes, participants enjoy hiking on the campus trails, swimming in the stream-fed mountain lake, and relaxing in yoga classes. Meals prepared by local caterers feature locally grown and organic foods served in the Robinson Dining Hall. In the evenings, faculty members show slides and talk about their work. The studios are open throughout the night. On Wednesday evenings a visiting artist comes as part of the Artist's Life Series, discussing the relationship between one's art and one's life. The week culminates with a Tennessee barbecue on Friday evening for faculty and participants.
