Please join WOWMAD as we present 3 days and nights of joyful, locally sourced traditional music and dance from around the world!
Join us in celebrating the rich diversity of West Coast traditional arts communities. Bask in music and dance with a golden weekend of convivencia at this warm and pleasant venue with a huge open oak-shaded yard.
Musicians and Dancers representing with their art and love: Balkan, Middle-Eastern, Cajun, Japanese, Roma, Central Asian, Klezmer, Norwegian, Greek, and more, in a VERY relaxed setting, with multiple headliners, glorious dancers, and special guests! http://www.wowmad.org/schedule-apr-27-29-2018.html
This event is 100% family-friendly, and aims to create the feel of mid-week at music camp, with carpets and pillows for lounging, great food, friends, laughter, and plenty of room to dance.
PARKING is available Saturday and Sunday on the UPPER level of the lot next door, accessible from 28th st via Telegraph.

This is a grassroots festival and all proceeds after expenses will go to the artists. Since it looks like the weather will be fine, we expect to fill the beautiful park-like yard with jam-spaces under the oaks, a musical-instrument petting-zoo, quality handmade goods and more.
