The Driftless Folk School recruits a diverse array of quality instructors to teach within our varied curriculum every year. Are you a skilled instructor and craftsperson who would like to offer a class through the folk school? Please fill out the class proposal form below, and we will consider your class offering as we craft our schedule for 2024 and beyond. Instructors of all ages, backgrounds, genders, and ethnicities are encouraged to apply!

Prospective teachers who fill out the form below will be sent our Instructor Agreement document, which contains more information about teaching with the DFS - like pay rates, venue options, and more. If your class is accepted, we will notify you so we can proceed with next steps.

Thank you for your interest in teaching with Driftless Folk School!

Course proposal process:
