Old Skills for Modern Times

"The vision of the Academy lives in the preservation of the rapidly disappearing knowledge and mastery of traditional artisan skills, in training students in this mastery, empowering them in self-reliance, strong ethical values, the ability to generate alternative boutique cottage-industries and strong, supportive community relationships, and in so doing, to confront the future challenges of a politically and environmentally challenged world with creative resourcefulness".
