We just wrapped up this year's Festival, and by all accounts it was one of the best ever. Thanks to all who came out, to all who worked hard to make it happen - our instructors, our volunteers, our CCS club members. Here are some highlights from the Instructors' Concert:

Hey folks! This year's WSDF is only a few weeks away! We still have openings in many of our classes. No advance payment is needed, but we would like for you to 'register' now, so we know how many students to expect (and how many handouts to prepare). More info, and the registration page, can be found at our website:

The Winston-Salem Dulcimer Festival for 2024 is on!  We are working hard to get everything in place for our traditional date, the first Saturday in May (that's May 4th this year).

Winston-Salem Dulcimer Festival will open registration for the 2023 festival this week! Stay tuned for further announcements; or check out our webpage (https://winstonsalemdulcimerfestival.com/) for more info!

Registrations are coming in steadily. Good news: we have reached our 'break even' point, so we will have no reason to cancel the festival due to low numbers (as is happening with some other festivals). Exciting! We are committed to having this *in person* festival - rain or shine, low numbers or high numbers. Plan on being with us on the first Saturday in May!

Some have reported that they cannot view the 'Schedule' page on our website - the times for each slot do not display properly. This seems to affect people who are using a mobile device (tablet or smart phone). Here is a screenshot of that page that might help.

The Winston-Salem Dulcimer Festival for 2022 is on! We are working hard to get everything in place for our traditional date, the first Saturday in May (that's May 7th this year).

Our confirmed instructors include Butch Ross, Dave Haas, Nancy Galambush (all teaching MD classes), Ken Bloom (bowed dulcimer), Marya Katz (hammered dulcimer - yay!), Kirk House (bass dulcimer), and special classes with Trish Ross, vocal instructor.

We plan to have more live jamming, this year, as well as on-site vendors. These are the things you can't get at a virtual festival.!

We are making some changes to our format! More details to follow, but we think you'll like the 'new look'. Our motto is 'Simpler is better'. :)

Registration info will be posted here, soon, and at https://winstonsalemdulcimerfestival.com Stay tuned!

Currently working on details of this year's *live*, in-person Winston-Salem Dulcimer Festival. We'll have a few changes (of course), but it will still be a great one-day festival, with nationally-known instructors in mountain dulcimer, hammered dulcimer, bowed dulcimer, and bass dulcimer! Website should go live soon, with registration open.

02/08/2022

Planning is now underway for the Winston Salem Dulcimer Festival to return LIVE in May of this year. Look for details soon! As always, the first Saturday in May. Same location; great instructors; new format (that we think you'll like)! Save the date - May 7th!
