SFS Flyer

he SFS Flyer - one of the benefits of becoming a member - is mailed to about 1,200 members, most of whom are in the Puget Sound area. It contains information on upcoming Seattle Folklore Society concerts, song circles, dances, and volunteer opportunities. A monthly calendar of events around the area, free members' ads (the "Unclassifieds"), and articles complete the Flyer.

Are you promoting a folk concert, dance or other event of interest to our members?  Tell us about your event. Event information is due by the 15th of the month prior. The SFS Flyer, which is sent to all our members, comes out on the first of the month and includes an extensive event calendar. The online event system is the preferred way to submit events for the SFS Flyer.  You must register with the system to submit an event, but there is no charge for this.

If you have written an article of interest to our members, submit it by email to flyer@seafolklore.org. Articles are due by the 10th of the month prior. (These deadlines are a week earlier in December.)

Space for display ads is available at reasonable rates. The deadline for all copy for the Flyer is the 10th of the month prior to the issue date; display ad space needs to be reserved by the 12th of the month. All submissions to the Flyer need to be by snail mail or email (not voice mail). Calendar copy, ad copy, payments, and all inquiries should be sent to:

Concerts

We are always reviewing music. Types of music that we have produced have included traditional singers, singer-songwriters, instrumental soloists, and instrumental ensembles from the USA and many regions of the world. Performers, see our performer info page.

The concert committee has its own voicemail line for reservations and information: (206) 528-8523, and an email address concerts@seafolklore.org. To receive e-mail notification of upcoming concerts, join our mailing list. If you wish, you can make concert reservations online.

Song Circles

Rainy Camp is a successful song camp supervised by a small committee whose active seasons are Fall and Winter. The Camp, which currently takes place at Camp Don Bosco near Carnation, features numerous song workshops on many themes, including ballads, sing-alongs, work songs, and so forth. For more information, see the Rainy Camp page, or call Bruce Baker, Committee Chair, at (206) 783-6824, or send email.
