Apply Now

Through the generosity of the Marie & John Zimmermann Fund, Peters Valley is pleased to offer full workshop scholarships to those with a committed interest in the art of fine metals or blacksmithing. Those chosen will receive full tuition, materials, lodging and meals for a metals workshop of their choice during the summer workshop season. Applicants must be at least 18 years old to be considered.

Scholarship recipients will be chosen by a panel of Peters Valley staff. The panel will review the applications and select those that reflect the strongest need and desire to further develop their skills and understanding of metals. The panel will take into consideration the applicant's experience and the contents of the letter of intent. We feel it is important that the applicant show a strong desire to enhance their current work or expand into new creative territory. It is our hope that by taking a workshop at Peters Valley the recipients will be inspired to grow creatively in their personal work while striving to make an impact in the world of metal art.
