UNITE AND UNITE!
There is a growing interest in Folk culture.
The Folk Union is an online space for conversations about folk culture today. We host Folk Moots. These are informal online gatherings where people working with, or interested in, folk culture can meet, talk, and share perspectives. It’s simply a place to hold conversations that might otherwise not happen.
At the centre of the project are Folk Moots. These are open, conversational gatherings where like-minded people working with, or thinking carefully about, contemporary folk culture can come together to talk about the scene, the movement, and its future.

JOIN THE FOLKMOOT
The Folk Union is a union in the older sense. A loose association of people choosing to organise around shared concerns, to support one another, and to pay attention to the cultural commons they share. It’s not an authority, an arbiter, or a governing body. If you feel like the Folk Union’s values align with yours you can sign our Charter.
