Corona Virus / COVID-19 Program Updates:
Live Concerts continue for 2023!
Seattle Folklore Society is very excited for the return of live music to the PNA Community Hall! Join us Saturdays and an occasional Sunday for a wide-ranging array of world-class acoustic music. We will offer a mix of in-person, online, and hybrid concerts in the coming year – check our website for the latest updates. Starting in November 2022, SFS will no longer require proof of COVID-19 vaccination for concert attendees. We will still require all (except performers while on stage) to stay masked. We will continue to monitor guidelines from Washington State, King County, and the Phinney Center.
Watch our webite for updates to the calendar and attendance policies. Tickets go on sale 30 days before each concert. Konnectclub is our partner for ticket sales as well as as our online platform. In the case of reduced hall capacity or changes in situation, refunds will be available (Places will be reserved in the order purchased if oversold due to changes in hall capacity. Some concerts will also include a livestream or ability to view a recording)
Seattle Song Circle is flourishing during COVID-19. We started video conferencing in February 2020, and moved from a dozen people singing together in person to 3 times that from all over. By the end of July, participants came in from Alaska to Maryland, from Australia to UK and Denmark. And the weekly sing extended past 11 PDT. The Seattle Song Circle is meeting 7PM Sundays via Zoom Conferencing, at this link: https://zoom.us/j/358495231 .

See Seattledance.org for more info about COVID precautions and schedule.(In the meantime, the Thursday night contra dance is also presenting in-person dances, with proof of vaccination and masks required.
