The Ohio Valley Gathering: Every year the Louisville Dulcimer Society hosts a weekend festival in early spring, for their old friends and anticipated new friends. Alternating between the Bluegrass State on odd numbered years, and somewhere in Hoosierland, on even numbered years, the festival attracts over 400 lovers of acoustic music, to enjoy jamming, classes, vendors and the very best in Southern Hospitality.

Most returning festival attendees feel they've been to a "family reunion". The bad part of the festival is that it's over after the hymn sing on Sunday morning. But the memories last a lifetime! Come join the brightest and best, the beginners and the pros, at the Ohio Valley Gathering!

The festival is coordinated by Maureen Sellers and run by an all volunteer staff of Louisville Dulcimer Society members and visitors.

Last years Gathering was a tremendous success.  Thanks to everyone who put the time and effort to make this possible.
