This event will be a wonderful opportunity for us to get back to our roots (our 1966 Folk Festival was actually held at Spring Mountain Ski Area!), celebrate our incredible legacy and indomitable spirit, and put all hands in the middle to do what we do best: create a magical, musical experience for those who join us. This in-person event is a fundraiser to support the artists, crafters, the Society, and our mission.
