Folk Music Camps and Getaways in New England


Immerse yourself! Folk camps are primarily for adults and are generally held in the summertime in a rural location. They consist of classes and workshops held during the day and concerts, parties, dances, jam sessions and sing-alongs held at night. Most camps are resident-only with meals and lodging as part of the package, but a few may offer classes to day campers. Also listed here are annual weekends or getaways that function similarly to camps.
These listings are by calendar date, January to December.
