The Folklife Festival is a unique Washington, DC tradition. However to keep this program alive, we rely on the support of our volunteers. We are still in need of volunteers for the festival this summer (June 23-27, June 30- July 4). This year is especially important because Washington, DC is one of the featured areas (in addition to El Rio and Tibet). Please go to the website and fill out an application if you are able to volunteer.
