The Newport Folk Festival is a grass roots
fun-fest, the brain child of the Newport Fiddle and Folk Club. Now 7 years old,
the Festival is a weekend of music, dance, storytelling and workshops that
include drawing, bread making and of course more music.
Storytelling Vic has hosted an event as
part of the festival from the beginning.
Thanks to the support of Jim Rush (ginger biscuits), No Worries Curries
(the chai), JJ Sheills (gluten free cake), John Bowers (sausage rolls), JB Rowley (herself) and MCs Niki na
Meadhra, Kate Lawrence, Matteo and Teena Hartnett, we have been able to run an
open floor for folks who want to have a go.
