NC Folk Festival: Continuing and redefining tradition

The inaugural North Carolina Folk Festival is the focus of our latest ATBR show, #141.  Arts Greensboro, businesses and the Piedmont Triad community are teaming up to continue where the National Folk Festival left off after its three-year run in Greensboro, NC.  

The National, which is run by the National Council for the Traditional Arts and moves to a new location every three years, was very successful in establishing the festival in Greensboro and proving that it could be popular and sustainable in our community.
