  • With "a mission to preserve and promote authentic and traditional American bluegrass music," this decade old festival welcomes all bluegrass pickers to the jam session on Friday night. Stage shows run from 10a-10p on Saturday with six or so bands, so a free-will offering is appreciated for Friday and Sunday. A bluegrass gospel service on Sunday morning winds up the event, and visitors can bring a carry-in lunch, starting at 10am. This festival is supported by the Indiana Arts Commission and the NEA.
