Music Under the Trees !
We’re still singing, and we hope you’ll all join us under the trees for our 47th year.
The Springtime Sweetheart Ball has been re-scheduled!
​
Saturday, April 5th
Wisconsin weather can't keep us from dancing, so mark Saturday, April 5th on your calendars. That's the day to come to the Shawano Civic Center and dance the night away. It's not Valentine's Day weekend any more, but we can still dance with our sweethearts, friends and families in the springtime - probably without getting snowed out! Frogwater will provide live music for the dancers, and John Wilson will call the dances. If you don't know how to do them, he'll teach you! If you'd rather watch the rest of us dance, you can do that! And if you're so inclined, come a little early and join us for a pot luck supper. Bring your kids, your grandparents, your neighbors and the people you just met at the gas station. The Shawano Civic Center is a new location for us - it's conveniently in downtown Shawano with lots of parking. Come early and join us for a potluck supper before the dancing begins. Hope you see you all there!

The 2024 Shawano Folk Music Festival Program Book, ready for you to download. It's full of info about last year's festival, but if you've never been here, it'll show you how we do it.
