  “Stick your finger down into the ground and smell where you are! This is where the needs of the people are found, which can be different in different times and places. Where this meets the abilities of the teacher, there lies the folk school’s calling.” - Ludwig Schroder, 1872

  From July 31 to Aug 2nd, 2025  folk school leaders and folk education supporters will gather at Folklore Village in Dodgeville, WI. This event will place educators, craft entrepreneurs, folk school staff, community organizers, folklorists, and researchers together for a long weekend of connection, program development workshops, seminars, craft, song, dance, and conversation about the future of folk education in America. Join us!
