SUMMARY:Central Ohio Folk Festival
DESCRIPTION:Two day event celebrating folk music!\nhttps://www.columbusfolkmusicsociety.org/festival.html Saturday May 4\n1030-530pm Festival & activities\n7-930pm- Arcadian Wild Concert A two day family-friendly festival featuring multiple performing stages presenting an array of upbeat folk/roots/Americana music\, kids’ & youth programming\, and 30+ music workshops (all levels). \nMore than 30 hourly concerts on 3 different stages by soloists\, duos\, and groups\, singing and playing guitar\, mandolin\, banjo\, fiddle\, dulcimer\, harp\, and other instruments. You’ll hear a wide range of folk music — bluegrass\, old-time\, blues\, singer-songwriter\, Southern roots\, Americana\, Celtic\, and more….songs that often reflect the struggles of everyday people. A giant 1960’s-style folk music community sing-along to open the festival at 11 am Saturday\, plus a poignant song circle to close the fest on Sunday.\nMore than 30 workshops for beginning and advanced musicians alike. Among the topics: songwriting\, jamming\, playing for social change\, the music business\, and how to play autoharp\, blues guitar\, ukulele\, mandolin\, and other folk instruments.\nAn area with special music\, stories\, workshops\, and arts/crafts for children. Plus\, a perennial favorite — our “instrument petting zoo” to let youngsters handle folk instruments. Festival mascot Darby Duck will also be on hand for the young and young-at-heart.\n2 drum circles where everyone\, young and old alike\, is invited to pound on a drum or other rhythm instrument to a mesmerizing beat.\nExpanded Informal jamming by anyone with an instrument or voice. This year will feature 5 jam tents\, each with a different thrust: bluegrass\, old-time\, folk-mix\, voices-only\, and one encouraging novice jammers.\nSaturday\, May 4th at 7 pm\, our headliner act\, The Arcadian Wild\, will create musical magic. The Nashville trio describes themselves as genre-bending\, since they had roots in alt-rock and punk\, but now mix bluegrass\, classical\, and other genres with tight 3-part vocal harmonies in original songs that defy categorization. \nProduced by –– The Columbus Folk Music Society in cooperation with The Metro Parks. Co-sponsored by WCBE 90.5 FM\nMeeting location notes: Big Meadows Picnic Area Big Meadows picnic area is at the back of the park. After you enter the park\, take the main road down the hill.
