Of course you already know about Northwest Folklife Festival which happens at the Seattle Center every year over Memorial Day weekend. This year the official dates are May 26 – May 29. This it the thirty-fifth year of Folklife and, as always, the festival features arts, crafts, food, and all sorts of fun. The weather that weekend is pretty much guaranteed to hit one extreme or another, I highly recommend packing both suncreen and a raincoat, just in case.

For those of you who enjoy online polls (and, really, who doesn’t?) this year Folklife is giving you the chance to Vote for your favorite Folklife poster.

Thirty-five years of posters and not a single clip art apple to be seen. Share your favorite Folklife story and earn a chance to get a free 2006 t-shirt.
