John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown NC is a Great Place to Learn just about Anything!

Posted by I Love Murphy on

It’s not always just about real estate, it’s about the natural beauty of a place and the things there are to do there. The John C. Campbell Folk School is an excellent combination of both.

In the mountains of Brasstown, North Carolina, a school exists with the motto, “I sing behind the plow.” The school is John C. Campbell Folk School and the skills that are taught here are so expansive that one is sure to be right up your alley.   From the art of writing, to basketry, the choices of over 860 classes held both weekdays and weekends are for the amateurs and the proficient alike. This is a unique vacation unlike any other and the creative side of you will be drawn out by the expertise of the instructors. Small classes and interactive learning in a passive atmosphere will be an experience you will enjoy in an area of tremendous scenic beauty that only a place like Brasstown, NC has to offer.

Resident artists and a staff that is dedicated to allowing you the chance to explore your inner artist help to keep the John C. Campbell Folk School a great learning environment. The Folk School welcomes you to the area and the wide array of skills you can learn while you are visiting. The classes are small so the instructors have one on one time with those wishing to learn a new skill or polish up on one they learned several years ago.

The studios are all about the learning experience – the choices you have are practically endless:.

* Blacksmith
* Clay
* Cooking
* Enameling/hot glass
* Fly Fishing
* Jewelry/Metalwork/Cold Glass Studio
* Keith House, Lower
* Music Studio
* Painting Studio
* Photography
* Quilting
* Rock Room
* Weaving Studio
* Wet Room
* Woodcarving
* Woodworking Studio

A few of the selections you will have are highlighted here, but this is only a sampling of the fun and creative time you can have when you visit the John C. Campbell Folk School.

The Rock Room

Enjoy this studio with rock covered walls that blends in with the nature of the North Carolina hills. The windows are plentiful and the openness of the space for basket, chair seat and broom classes are what make the Rock Room a studio that you will enjoy working in while learning these skills.

Woodcarving Studio

Here is the epitome of the rustic and picturesque buildings of old. The saw mill nearby and the porch for enjoying the mountain air make this building the perfect spot for woodcarving. The carvers can make whatever their hearts desire from a cowboy to a mythical wood spirit.

Music Studio

The splendid view surrounding the Music Studio seems to be just made for the enjoyment of music. From the mountain dulcimer to the Native American flute, the classes held in this beautiful studio which boasts a fireplace are available for all levels – the beginning musician to the experienced.

Enameling/Hot Glass Studio

With the joining of metal to glass, the possible projects are endless. Jewelry, home décor and art are all taught in this studio. Work on an art project that will inspire the free form artist in you – a three dimensional project made of copper or a stained glass technique. Whatever you choose will be a personal work of art you will enjoy making.

Cooking Studio

If you love to cook or just want to learn how this is a culinary dream come true. The huge selection of appliances with which you will have to work are going to ensure you will come up with a wonderful dish or two. From the wood-fired brick oven to the pasta maker, you can learn the basics of cooking or dream up a real masterpiece.

Posted by I Love Murphy on
470 Brook Green Lane; Brasstown NC
470 Brook Green Lane; Brasstown NC

Here’s an amazing 3 bedroom, 2 bath home unlike any you’ll find anywhere in Cherokee County! It’s located in the famous Brasstown area close to the John C Campbell Folkschool and also close to town. This home has exquisite attention to detail! The curb appeal when you go by this home is simply breathtaking and the inside is a perfect compliment to the exterior.

When you pull up, the two car garage is a great place to keep your vehicles sheltered from the weather. When you step inside the home, you’ll find spectacular accessories and features that no voice over can do justice. One of the first rooms you’ll enter is the kitchen with some of the most beautiful cabinets you’ll find! The golden ivory granite countertops sparkle brilliantly! In the center of the kitchen is an enormous 5’x8′ island centered for a large workspace and additional storage. Glancing up, you’ll notice the oak and acorn stained glass letting in glorious, natural light. As you walk through the home, you’ll notice the oak and acorns throughout the home which brings health and prosperity to those inside.

Stepping from the kitchen you’ll go by the dining area and find an amazing living room with an enormous true masonry wood burning fireplace. The vaulted ceilings stretch on seemingly forever and are accented with a beautiful cherry finished tongue and groove. On either side of the herring bone patterned fireplace are knotty cherry bookshelves and built-in entertainment center. The Bose central surround sound operates in virtually every room of the home and can set the mood perfectly for a romantic evening, to entertain friends, or to simply dance around the living room alone!

The master suite is truly that – it even boasts its own private sitting room! In the bedroom, the tray ceiling is a perfect accent to all the details throughout. The master’s bathroom is truly a work of art! It features a custom vanity built specifically for this bathroom. There are two walk-in closets with built in chest of drawers and shoe racks so each partner can have their own private place to put their things. In the center of the bathroom is a Roman shower that truly will give you shower-envy! It has two large, hand etched frosted glass panes for privacy. Inside the tile shower is rubbed bronze faucet fixtures that even have an overhead rain shower. Stepping from the shower is the claw-foot bathtub that is truly huge! It has its own telephone handset faucet. It’s the perfect place to take an evening bath and relax.

The additional 2 bedrooms and bath are certainly a beauty in their own right. One is currently set up as a bedroom and the other is being used as an office with custom made maple bookshelves with a fine distressed black finish. In the center of the room is a beautiful Tiffany acorn light fixture that is a stunning accent to the room.

This home is not only a home, it’s a statement. A work of art. Truly, it is unlike anything you’ll find. If you’re looking for a home that makes a statement and will leave you in awe, this is it. Seeing it in person will certainly not disappoint you, rather it will leave you amazed.

John C. Campbell Folk School Fall Festival 2008 in Murphy, NC

Posted by I Love Murphy on

Cool weather, falling leaves, and festivals means it is October and that Fall is in full swing here in Murphy, North Carolina!

Last weekend we went to the John C Campbell Folk School‘s Fall Festival here in Murphy, NC / Brasstown, NC. It was perfect weather! Despite gas shortages throughout much of the southeast, 1,000’s of people made their way to come visit the festivities that were wide open all weekend.

Jessica, Katie, and I had a great time walking around, visiting all the different booths, the live music, riding horses (well, Katie did!), eating, and seeing tons of people we haven’t seen in a while! The best part is seeing the truly talented vendors selling everything from their soaps, trinkets, and my personal favorite, photographs.

This year’s Fall Festival was great and we look forward to next year’s!
