Abstract
Black Mountain College was a college established in 1933 in a rural area of the Appalachian Mountains near Ashville, North Carolina. During its twenty-four years of existence, it emerged as an innovative and experimental educational institution that placed the arts at the center of education and put the creation of a community at the heart of the project. This article analyses the main elements that shaped the school’s educational philosophy and the processes through which they were put into practice.
