We are established as both a state and federal non-profit organization. We were founded for the purpose of preserving folk arts, especially traditional music, in the San Joaquin Valley.  

 

We’ve been around for over 40 years and aside from the fact that we have a great time playing music, dancing, and singing, we provide a venue for the community to hear and enjoy folk music; country, old-timey, bluegrass, honky tonk, Irish, Scottish, Cajun, Armenian--just to name a few.

 

We are a family friendly organization.  Children are welcome at most events.  We share with the community our talents and concerns for a peaceful, just, environmentally friendly world.  

 

Membership is open to the community:  $20 a year for individual membership; $30 for a family.  We are an all volunteer organization and we graciously accept donations and offers of help.

 

Benefits of membership include:

 

Being part of a folk community.

Monthly newsletter and calendar of upcoming events.

Opportunity to sing, dance, play music with others.

Opportunity to learn to sing, dance, and play music.

A discount at the door on most concert tickets. Some exceptions.
