About

The Folkmoot Friendship Center provides retail and gallery space to craft artists and independent businesses. Some of these folks are professional artists and others are hoping to grow their business. All of these groups set their own operational hours. For a full list of artists visit the website.

The Friendship Center also hosts events like social gatherings, weddings, reunions, fundraisers, retreats, or conferences! Queen Auditorium, classrooms and boardroom are available for rent by the hour, day or week.
