Anchorage Folk Festival, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, member-supported, volunteer organization supporting folk arts in the community.

EVENTS

For two weeks in late January, we host more than 120 acts from Alaska and beyond. Singers, musicians, dancers and storytellers perform traditional and original material from folk and old-time to Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, klezmer, Cajun and more. Professional guest artists and Alaskan performers alike perform on our main stage and at a variety of venues throughout Anchorage and Eagle River. There are workshops for musicians and dancers of all ages and abilities, and our headliners also participate in AFF fundraising dances.

All January concerts and workshops are open to the public and are FREE.

The Anchorage Folk Festival also raises money through memberships and fund raising events, such as performance, dances, and workshops held throughout the year.
