Teaming up at this fantastic charity event Grammy-nominated guitarist Jon Butcher featuring harmonica virtuoso Otto Lenz on the Band Shell Stage at the Tenth Annual Rhode Island Folk Festival!
Join us for a FREE day of music on Sunday August 24th from noon to 6 PM at the beautiful waterfront Crescent Park in Riverside, East Providence, Rhode Island. This beloved festival showcases the finest folk, acoustic, and Americana singer-songwriters from Rhode Island and beyond.
You'll enjoy a full day of diverse sounds across three stages:
* The Band Shell Stage will feature top national acts and Rhode Island's premier bands.
* The Songbird Stage offers the alternative side of folk.
* The Gazebo Stage provides shorter sets from RI's best artists.
Wander between stages and delight your senses with a variety of food and art vendors set up along the paths.
The Rhode Island Folk Festival is produced by Hear In Rhode Island, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by Rhode Island native John Fuzek. Since 1994, Hear In Rhode Island has been dedicated to producing free music festivals that promote folk singer-songwriters, bringing high-quality music to tens of thousands of people.
We hope to see you there for a great dose of the RI sound and classic performances!
