Since we opened the Folk School in the spring of 2023, YOU have been proving the importance of
community space. I believe it has been an outstanding showcase of civic support for public good. We have all witnessed beautiful collaborations, essential skill development, the sharing of knowledge and resources. Overall, the musical gatherings here at the Folk School have been 100% uplifting to ourcommunity.
