To unite the diverse voices and sounds of our beautiful Pacific Northwest North Coast region through this vibrant celebration of folk music, ensuring these traditions are cherished and remembered for generations to come.

First conceived by local folk musician, singer/songwriter Barbara Anne Gaidosh, this folk music festival has been a dream of this Oregon native for most of her life. Inspired by events like the Sisters Folk Festival, Barbara Anne hopes the North Coast Folk Festival can thrive as a celebration of Pacific Northwest musicians for future generations to enjoy!
Events such as our folk music festival can only be organized by a dedicated team. We are blessed to be supported by a talented group of people who have written grants, brainstormed event planning, and more, ensuring this continues to be an unforgettable showcase of the best Pacific Northwest musicians!
