The best of Arizona acoustic music, plus performers from as far away as Scotland, will be on display Saturday, October 3 and Sunday, October 4 at the 31st Annual Folk Music Festival at Sharlot Hall Museum in Prescott.

The action begins at 10 a.m. and continues nonstop until 5 p.m. each day. More than 150 performers will be participating, delivering musical magic ranging from bluegrass to regimental to gospel. Six venues on the beautiful Museum grounds will offer concerts, musical workshops and dancing.

Singers, songwriters and storytellers of every folk ilk will be performing over the two-day Festival. The family-friendly event also features musical acts for the kids, including the Super Silliest Band.

In addition to the many scheduled performances, the Folk Music Festival is renowned for its impromptu jam sessions featuring musicians from different groups and styles mixing and mingling with visitors.

Guests are invited to join the Sunday morning gospel sing-along, learn to play the harmonica or delve into the art of songwriting. Guests are also encouraged to bring their own acoustic musical instruments for workshops focusing on guitars, banjos, ukuleles and more.

Admission is by donation.
