Folk & Heritage Music
The goal of the Bureau is to build a greater awareness of our traditional music and its roots. Throughout the year, there are opportunities to meet in the Roswell community to share music, ideas, sounds and projects. Special promotions will feature the artists and traditions for which they are well known.
The first Sunday of each month, from 1-4 p.m., a free Bluegrass Jam Session is provided at the Visitors Center. The second and fourth Sundays of the month (subject to change), the Stone Soup Folk Circle jams from 1-3 pm at the Visitors Center. Musicians and listeners are invited.
Workshops are presented at various times, allowing those who are interested to develop or enhance their skills, or to learn more about saving and preserving our traditional heritage.
Traditional musicians who are actively involved in the Roswell Folk and Heritage Bureau have access to promotions through the organization's web site, a listing in the Official Guide to Roswell, and receive the History Maker newsletter.
From professional musicians to those who simply enjoy listening and tapping their toes to the sounds of Old-Time, Country, Bluegrass, Folk, and Southern Gospel music, there are opportunities for all.
