Producing concerts for select, traditionally-rooted artists has always been an effort of FFOTM. Our unique location in the mountains of Northern Arizona brings many touring musicians through Arizona, gig-bound from all over the country.
The Flagstaff Folk Festival was born in 2002 and we currently partner with Flagstaff Cultural Partners and the Pioneer Museum, to run four stages, including workshop and jam areas. In 2012 we had 112 bands and performers! Flagstaff Folk Festival for more information.
In 2004 our beloved Young Jammers (YJ) program was created. Springing from the brains of Lloyd Holdeman and Christina Boyd the Young Jammers is a music education program specifically for young people, ages 9-16 years of age. The “jammers” as we refer to them are provided with instruments and instruction on a regular basis. We’re fortunate that Bonnie Dumdei and husband Terry Alan have stepped into the lead and currently foster the program.

In 2006, we bit off our largest program to date, producing the 1st Annual Pickin’ in the Pines Bluegrass & Acoustic Music Festival. We’re continually working hard as a volunteer organization to bring world-class national, regional and local talent to the magnificent stage and wooded setting of The Pepsi Amphitheater in the Ft. Tuthill County Park. Check out our stellar lineup for year eight at:
