~ THANK YOU ~
To all musicians, announcers, sound crew, artists, volunteer workers, vendors, Northeast Ohio Musical Heritage Association-NEOMHA (who sponsored the Workshops), Century Village Museum Board and Staff, and especially our brave festival-goers who helped make the 2023 Raccoon County Music Festival the success it turned out to be (despite our need to quickly move to Plan B not once, but twice) thank you! Without our audience members, the show would not have been the same, so thank you again for loving traditional music enough to brave the storms and have a good time with us on August 12. We have received some appreciative comments already from those who attended which makes us want to do it all again next year!

FESTIVAL MISSION: To showcase performers of traditional folk music common to America, including old-time, bluegrass, Irish, blues, and more and to bring together the essential supporters of American roots music in a historic beautiful setting.
EVENT DETAILS: Local and regional musicians will perform traditional folk music common to America in a continuous series of concerts throughout the day on two stages beginning at noon. In addition to excellent music and historical exhibits, there is food, refreshments, CDs from the performers, and festival t-shirts will be available for purchase. And as always, musicians are encouraged to bring their instruments. Spontaneous jamming is strongly encouraged. Tickets will be available at the gate on the day of the festival. Bring lawn chairs and blankets! If it rains, the event will take place inside, so don’t let any wet weather scare you away!
