Thank you for a magnificent Folkmoot 2018!

The music and dancing have stopped (for now, briefly), lasting friendships and bonds have been rendered to sweet memories, the banners are down, the flags fly in our collective consciousness and, maybe, our world feels a bit more peaceful.

Hey, y'all! Say, "hello," in the languages of #Folkmoot

Hey, y’all! Say, “hello,” in the languages of Folkmoot.
