DESCRIPTION:In 2023, the Smithsonian Folklife Festival celebrates diverse American 
 cultures through two programs: Creative Encounters: Living Religions in the 
 U.S. and The Ozarks: Faces and Facets of a Region. As always, the Festival 
 invites visitors to participate in music and dance performances, hands-on 
 activities, craft workshops, conversations, and cooking and gardening 
 demonstrations.\n\nCreative Encounters: Living Religions in the U.S. 
 explores how the country’s diverse religious traditions inspire a 
 wellspring of creative encounters and expressions. Representatives of 
 various religious and ethical traditions will share their skills and 
 stories within five themes: Makers of Faith (craft and placemaking), Sound 
 Religion (music and poetry), Body and Spirit (dance and movement), Kitchen 
 Theology (foodways and plant knowledge), and Futurisms.\n\nThe Ozarks: 
 Faces and Facets of a Region highlights the diverse population and cultural 
 traditions of this North American region, which includes portions of 
 Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Illinois. The program is 
 organized into four key themes: Celebrations and Gatherings; Stories, 
 Sounds, and Show Business; Migrations, Movements, and Pathways; and 
 Connections to Land and Place.\n\nJune 29th - July 4th and July 6th - 9th. 
 Hours are generally 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., with evening concerts and special 
 presentations starting at 6 p.m. All events are free and open to the 
 public. Evening concerts plus a selection of daytime programs will be 
 livestreamed on YouTube. \n\nASL interpretation and real-time captioning 
 will be provided for all evening events, both in person and virtually, and 
 for select daytime events. Additional accessibility services may be 
 provided by request.\n\n
