In 1942 the Army Arts and Crafts Program was established to increase

morale and find artists to help with enhancing buildings and grounds of Army

facilities. The program was so successful that the Army created the “Arts and

Crafts Section of Special Services” to “fulfill the natural human desire to

create, provide opportunities for self-expression serve old skills and develop

new ones and assist the entire recreation program through construction

work, publicity, and decoration.”

Today the Stuttgart Arts and Crafts Branch of Family and MWR is a dynamic and vibrant Arts and Crafts

program with two facilities, retail operations, and a robust catalog of skill developing instructional classes.

We offer activities that provide deployment stress relief and resiliency to Family members and Soldiers

returning from deployment. The Arts and Crafts program continues to promote Soldier and Family

morale, and fosters individual self-improvement and enriches the community’s cultural quality of life by

offering affordable and quality creative arts instruction and hands-on assistance.

It is a pleasure to serve in the Stuttgart community and we hope that you will find your time

here artistically fulfilling and be able to say, “I’m glad I live here.”

How to use this book: At the beginning of the book you will find a Class List with the name of the

class, the age range it’s for, the dates and the times. Some classes span multiple dates, so you’ll want to

make sure you can attend all the sessions. The rest of the book has the class descriptions and prices.

There are also fun facts, tips and other information scattered throughout the book. We hope you enjoy

reading and find this format informative and useful.
