Folk College is a fun and friendly weekend of playing and listening to folk
music - a fantastic three days of workshops, concerts, jams, dancing and
friendship. Activities are held at Juniata College, a beautiful setting in
Huntingdon PA, nestled in the picturesque Allegheny Mountains. Within one
weekend, you'll have a choice of workshops ranging from old-time to blues to
international, and you'll get to sing, dance, play, and listen. All instruments
are welcome, and there are workshops for every level from total beginner to
professional.

Don't play an instrument but always wished you did? This weekend is for you too!
We'll have a beginners' intensive where instruments are provided and you'll get

and bass.
