About
the Artists’ Village…
The Shelter Valley Folk Festival is a volunteer-run family
event, featuring multiple stages with performers from across
the continent and around the corner, an exceptional array
of talented artists, fabulous hands-on programming for
children of all ages, family camping, fine local and organic
food and a wellness area where festival-goers can explore
new options for health, well-being, and sustainable living.
The third annual Shelter Valley Folk Festival runs from
Friday September 1st through Sunday September 3rd, 2006.
A group of approximately 20 Artists will be selected participants
of the Shelter Valley Folk Festival Artists’ Village. The
juried selection process will be guided by a desire to
create a vibrant and welcoming artists’ community
for the weekend that will support the contributions of
the participating artists and encourage festival-goers
to share in the experience. Our choices will be based on
the quality and originality of the artist’s work
as well as a perceived willingness to interact with and
demonstrate their artistic process to the audience. In
this way the artists become part of the community as we
present this unique weekend experience. |
