After a couple months of rest following the 39th Illawarra Folk Festival, we're finally starting to feel alive again, and we have some thank yous to make!!!

To all our vendors, artists, volunteers, coordinators and everyone who was a part of the festival, thank you for making it a memorable one! Special mention to the vendors who stuck it out in torrential rain and kept everyone fed, caffeinated, juiced up and safe.

A very big thank you goes to Aleta (not pictured, too busy running around) who ran the artistic site set up and made the festival look so beautiful!
