National Folk Festival
The National Folk Festival will be going on this weekend, October 7-9th, on the banks of the beautiful James River in historic downtown Richmond, Virginia. Joe Kelley, Suzy Nees, and several additional resident artists of the Jacksonville Center in Floyd, Virginia, will have work on display at the Folk Art Tent in the 10,000 Villages Marketplace, in cooperation with Around the Mountain, a newly-formed non-profit organization that coordinates the handcraft and artisans of Virginia’s Appalachian region.
"The National Folk Festival celebrates the roots, richness and variety of American culture through music, dance, traditional craft, storytelling, and food. This event is a large-scale FREE three day event. The festival features over 25 of the nation's finest performing groups and crafts people, seven stages of continuous music and dance, craft exhibits and demonstrations, a Folk Arts Marketplace, children's area and delicious regional and ethnic foods.
