The Bluff Arts Festival is proud to offer some of the more creative hands-on workshops in the Four Corners. You can work alongside local artists as they guide you through creating a variety of mediums. Try your hand at everything from silver overlay to Navajo weaving, printmaking, beading, nature writing, and more. Workshops vary each year.
This year we will be offering workshops spread across Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, along with a few more intensive, all day and two day workshops.
