I am glad to welcome all of you to the official MySpace webpage of Yakima Valley Folklife. It is a joy to be a part of bringing music to the Yakima community. We do our best to provide a variety of styles of music within the folk tradition in both our monthly concerts and summer festival. Enjoy!
Jane E Newall, president
The Yakima Folklife Festival takes place in Franklin Park (a large city park with trees and slopes in the residential center of Yakima), and in the Yakima Valley Museum (located in Franklin Park). Evening concerts are held Friday and Saturday at numerous downtown venues. Weekend daytime events are held in the park and museum, with evening events on Saturday continuing in the park and museum and at venues such as Bob's Keg & Cork, The Depot, The Barrel House, and Yakima Cellars, among others. Daytime events are centered in the park, with food and craft booths located in the heart of the action. There is also a “Children’s Festival” area (in cooperation with the museum’s Children’s Underground).
