Thread Name: FSGW Mini Fest 2003
Subject: RE: FSGW Mini Fest 2003
Don, there is a crafts area. I think it's done moderately well in the last couple of years, too. If you think you could make it I'll find out who you should contact.

Mmario, there's no silent auction at the Mini, just at the fall FSGW Getaway where it benefits our Getaway scholarship fund.

The minifest is a full day: workshops from noon to 6, concert in one hall and dance in the other during the evening. Lots of dance, usually one "trad" track and a number of local groups, etc, including groups like a Japanese koto society, Latin performers, all kinds of stuff.

House of Musical Traditions and Cadmus records offer places to spend money as well as various craft vendors and the food vendor (a Jamaican outfit with quite good food.)

End of commercial.
