Trad Arts Team News, September 2024

One of the things about Birmingham is that with its central location there are Folk Festivals in all directions as well as our own local Moseley Folk Festival this weekend. So I hope you have all had a good festival summer and managed to avoid the rain. The Trad Arts Team continues to trickle along with a variety of events in September; hopefully there is something here to suit all tastes.
