WHAT ELSE DOES THE FOLKWAYS CENTER OF THE GEORGIA MOUNTAINS HAVE IN STORE?
The Dahlonega Mountain Music and Medicine show on the first Saturday of each month is just one of the Folkways Centers regular productions (see below). As well as being the venue for live musical events, however, the Center offers “place based” education projects and classes, a museum and shop featuring art and custom mountain crafts – and will in time offer even more. Indeed, a Museum of Outsider Art is in the planning stage as part of the Center, depending on the availability of funds, with items on loan or donated due to the largesse of a prominent collector of folk art.
