Description
This brochure gives brief descriptions of the mission and work of the Appalachian School (initially called the Appalachian Industrial School) and the Penland Weavers and Potters. Both organizations at the time the brochure was printed in the mid-1930s were under the auspices of the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina. The cover of the brochure is illustrated with a photograph of Appalachian School students. From 1923 to 1938 the Appalachian School served as the umbrella institution under which the Penland Weavers and Potters were organized and Penland School of Handicrafts (now Penland School of Crafts) was established.
