The 11th annual Orlando Folk Festival will be held February 9 and 10, 2013, in the sculpture gardens of the Mennello Museum of American Art.
In the folk life area, there will be traditional craft demonstrations in the arts of silk embroidery, chair-caning, broom-making, wood-carving, weaving, bobbin-lace-making, spinning and pottery-making.
Live music will play all day on the outdoor stage, and there will also be other entertainers and storytellers.
Guests are welcome to bring picnic baskets and coolers, but there will also be food trucks serving Southern and American specialties for sale.
Admission to the outdoor festival is free to all. Properly maintained and leashed pets are also welcome, with their owners. There is still a fee for entrance into the museum, itself.
Hours are 10am to 5pm each day.
