White Oak Folk Fest

media release: Thanks to the support of our festival community, we are able to take some exciting steps forward this year.  We are adding a new stage, expanding musical genres, a fun run and getting ready for a parade!  Our vision is to grow into a diverse and self-sustaining festival that reflects the very land on which we gather. To those who have been with us from the beginning, thank you for supporting us as we grow.  For you first timers, welcome to the party.
