Campground Art & Animation Areas

Communal gathering is an important aspect of the Festival Campground experience and the Winnipeg Folk Festival encourages performance-based, structural, educational and aesthetic projects that facilitate interaction and participation among our campers.  Each year, the festival organizers work with groups who apply with project proposals. Not bound to the walls of a gallery, our Festival Campground allows ideas to take on a larger-than-life quality. More.

Young Artists Program

After eight wonderful years, we must announce that the Young Artists Program has been discontinued. We sincerely thank all the volunteers and past participants who created beautiful works of art that brought joy to thousands of festival attendees. Thanks also goes out to the Winnipeg Art Gallery for their partnership over the years.

Hand-Made Village

The Hand-Made Village is a craft village at the festival that features artisans who design and produce their own work. The Winnipeg Folk Festival is proud to support the tradition of crafts both at the festival and throughout the year. More.
