Fall Festival 2014 Poster
Presenting our new Fall Festival Poster for 2014! The image celebrates the bounty of the fall harvest with a young banjo pickin’ gal sitting in a pumpkin patch. She holds a cornucopia, a symbol of abundance, overflowing with riches of the land.

A Colorful Tradition: Fall Festival Banners
Thirty-eight years ago, the very first Folk School Fall Festival was held by Open House beside the large fields.

So they simply brought to the Folk School and local artists a festival of our own!
