Vancouver Folk Music Festival

July 19, 2003

By Catherine Barr

 

Hippy beads, ponytails, knitted berets . . . just about anything was in style this weeend at Jericho Beach for the 26th Annual Vancouver Folk Music Festival. It was two days and three nights full of funky festivities for friends and families that not only paid tribute to tradition, but also made you think about how far the world has come today. Congratulations to festival planners for putting on another winner.
