IRS990/Desc0The Philadelphia Folk Festival is the most visible of the programs that PFS executes. In August each year (for 55 years), the oldest operational volunteer-run event of its kind in the US, "THE" Folk Festival, holds a traditional public gathering specifically focused on folk music and dance including expressions such as Blues, Native American, Cajun, and other ethnic music for public appreciation. In addition to tradiational audience presentation, the Festival gives a wide array of volunteers the ability to participate in the entire process of producing the Festival. The Festival also offers educational opportunities in areas such as education, participation, and traditions ("sings"), presentation of speakers who share both history and oral storytelling. Additionally, the Festival offers opportunity for emerging artists (both in the local 'Co-op', nationally, and internationally to practice their craft of presentation and network with professional artists. Highly participative, the Festival provides the opportunity for a multi-generational gathering of individuals committed to Folk Music and related forms of expression. The Festival is archived in film, audio recording, photography, and journals/records which are kept by the Society. This latter provides a rich historical record of folk music for generations to come.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Throughout the year, the Society continues their core mission through several programs: The Odyssey of Folk Music: brings traditional folk music to schools. Professional Musicians work with teachers to provide programs that are appropriate to curriculum. Programs are strongly situated in the history and place of music in history. Seasonal Retreats: Programs such as Spring Thing and Fall Fling gather participants for workshops, presentation, and the processes involved in executing these retreats. Highly participative and open to the public, these retreats provide opportunity for folk expression. The Philadelphia Music Co-Op: provides opportunity to musicians to hone their skills and present their art throughout the area. Providing 'gig' opportunities to publicly perform as well as workshops on marketing, the music business, licensing, legal/copyright, the program assists musicians the opportunity to solidify both their craft and the successful execution of the same "Member" Events: throughout the year, numerous programs are provided to the Members and the public to participate in/enjoy presentations, traditional "sings and "jams," network with enthusiasts and performers.
