Accessibility at North House
Scholarships, Work Study, and Local Discount
We believe that craft education should be accessible to anyone with an interest in learning, and that the mission of our school is made richer by welcoming a diverse range of students to our campus. To that end, our organizational values have guided the creation of three key efforts to create greater access to our programs.
- Work Study Program - short- and long-term opportunities
- Scholarship Program - applications close November 29 2021
- Local Discount for residents of Cook County
