Come enjoy a week with us in the beautiful North Georgia mountains. Have fun while learning amazing skills and crafts to enjoy for a lifetime!
Hello there, and welcome to the 2024 season of the William Holland School of Lapidary Arts, the jewel of the North Georgia Mountains! This season marks our 41st year of operation. During this time, we have grown from one of the best-kept secrets in the lapidary community to a vibrant hub of learning and creativity.
We’d like to thank our many friends, volunteers, students, and instructors; without each of your contributions, William Holland would have never been able to grow from one man’s dream into the “Rockhound haven” it is today. This year we welcome several new instructors and new class offerings, as well as our returning assembly of instructors who provide our lapidary core-class selections. We are so very proud of the significant contribution that all our instructors make, both to the school, and to each one of their students. It’s an honor to have them volunteer their time and exceptional talents!
When viewing our classes, please note that no two courses are identical, because each instructor has their own teaching style and adds to your knowledge of lapidary with their unique experience. We also have a category of classes this year entitled “Unique Offerings”, which contain instruction from different disciplines to further enhance your Lapidary School experience!
As we approach the start of our 41st year, we feel it is the perfect opportunity to reflect on many wonderful memories, and to thank each of you for your continued support and patronage of William Holland. Come and join us as we learn, create, and share in one of the most beautiful places in America—Young Harris, Georgia. If you’re a new student, welcome! And if you’re a returning student, welcome back! We look forward to your arrival, and we can’t wait to ‘rock out’ with you!
Sincerely,
Kristine Robertson, Executive Director
