FOLK ARTISTS: BRINGING IT HOME
A grid of 8 photos advertises the 2022 Bringing It Home series at the Susquehanna Folk Festival
We are pleased to announce this year's Bringing It Home series at the Susquehanna Folk Festival, spotlighting the work of several local folk artists in (and not yet in!) our Folk Artists Gallery.
Dance to Serbo-Croatian tambura music of Sviraj... be spellbound by classical Indian dance... talk about foods that remind folks of home... enjoy songs and dance music of Puerto Rico, Brazil, Ireland, and Black American churches... and hear stories about passing on traditions to a new generation. It's all at the Susquehanna Folk Festival this August!
The board and staff of the Susquehanna Folk Music Society are committed to celebrating and affirming diverse cultures through programming which explores the music, dance, craft and stories of many people. We stand in complete solidarity with the Black community and all marginalized communities to speak out against injustice, bigotry and racial violence.
