The Mountain Dance and Folk festival and Shindig On The Green events are coordinated by the Folk Heritage Committee of the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce. |
|
The Folk Heritage Committee, a function of the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce Community Betterment Foundation, works throughout the year to produce the Mountain Dance and Folk Festival and Shindig on the Green events. This committee consists of eighteen dedicated community volunteers who represent a wide range of skills and talents, and who are active participants in the region’s music and dance communities. Their mission is to preserve and present the musical heritage of the Southern Appalachians to audiences from throughout the region and country for entertainment and education. Members of the Folk Heritage Committee provide year-long, volunteer leadership to stage the three-day Mountain Dance and Folk Festival and weekly Shindig on the Green outdoor summer events |
