Birmingham Folk Festival

Join us as Avondale Park comes alive with art and sound from around our city, hosting the Birmingham Folk Festival this Saturday, May 4, 11 am-7 pm! The Birmingham Folk Festival is free to attendees, but donations will be accepted, and proceeds will be given to local nonprofits including Black Warrior Riverkeeper, a nonprofit devoted to protecting the Black Warrior River.

As part of the Birmingham Folk Festival, Avondale Regional Library, 509 40th Street South, is hosting an art show featuring the work of artist Stephen W. Evans. His work is on display at Avondale Library from April 29 through the end of this Saturday’s festival.

Avondale Library will also host poetry/spoken word and a community writing workshop presented by The Flourish Alabama. In addition, the Alabama school of Fine Arts Groove Rhythm Nation will present a rhythm and movement class.
