Folkmoot invites performance groups from diverse international countries along with local Cherokee and Appalachian performers each year. Audiences can expect approximately 200 dancers and musicians to share culture through music and dance at events throughout western North Carolina in venues between the Cherokee Qualla Boundary and Hickory, North Carolina.
