Wish List

The Adirondack Folk School has been very fortunate in getting the classrooms set up through the generous support of our local community and so many individuals as we prepare for our initial classes this summer.  But we still have needs in several of the classrooms & studios.  If you have any of these items in working condition that you wish to contribute, please contact us at 518-696-2400 and ask for either Jim Mandle.   To make a donation so that we may purchase these items, please call the school or mail your financial contributions to the Adirondack Folk School, P.O. Box 2, Lake Luzerne, NY  12846.  If you wish to donate towards a specific item, please specify this.
