RESCHEDULED: Date TBA

Friends,

The Baltimore Old Time Festival was designed with the spirit of community in mind. We strive to create a safe, welcoming environment for this music and the greater community to thrive. With the Covid-19 outbreak spreading rapidly, we no longer feel that we can provide a safe environment for all who attend. It is important that large gatherings like this be cancelled to slow the spread of this virus and, despite the hard work we have put into this event and steps we put into place to keep everyone safe, it is in the best interest of everyone to avoid such large convenings. With that in mind, we are sad to inform you that the Second Annual Baltimore Old Time Music Festival has been postponed until a future date.

What does this postponement mean?

• Festival Organizers are actively working on securing another weekend, likely in the summer, for the scheduled festival.

• All tickets purchased for the festival this weekend will be transferred to this new date, once it has been confirmed.

• If you feel that you must get a refund immediately, please contact the box office. If not, we would appreciate your patience with us.

• Once we have secured and announced a new date, we will offer refunds, or please consider donating your ticket as a tax-deductible gift to Creative Alliance, if this date does not work with your personal calendar.

This is a big loss for everyone involved: artists, Creative Alliance, and you, the audience, but the safety of all involved is our top priority

Kindly,

 

The Baltimore Old Time Music Fest Team (Ken, Brad, Josh, Susan)

Creative Alliance convenes some of the brightest old time musicians, singers, and dancers in the country to celebrate where this music exists today. Join host artists Ken & Brad Kolodner for the Baltimore Old Time Music Festival! On Friday night, Ken and Brad welcome a dizzying lineup of musicians including The Foghorn Stringband, Bill and The Belles, Amythyst Kiah, T-Mart Rounders, and Red Tail Ring, for two days of brilliant musicianship, shimmering vocal harmonies, and hot flatfoot dance.

Saturday is packed with hands-on workshops from many of our headline performers, intimate performances in the Marquee Lounge, afternoon concerts in the theater and a wild square dance to close out the festival on Saturday night. See you there?
