Old Town School of Folk Music

In 1957, folk musician Win Stracke opened a small school teaching folk music in Old Town. Today, the school has moved further North and expanded into not only an internationally known school, but also a performance venue that features many well-known folk performers. Students can learn a variety of ethnic dance and music styles. Sign up to learn how to play blues harmonica, Irish ballad singing, African drumming and much more. There is also a retail store where you can find dozens of books and tapes.
