Shout-outs & Shameless Plugs

• A nice feature in this month’s Fargo Monthly about Folkways and all the amazing things they do to make this a great place to be. If you appreciate their work, consider a donation here or at one of their events. I make it a personal traditional to stop by their booth at the first Red River Market each year, and make a donation.

Well That’s Interesting
