Grammy award winning folk giants, The New Christy Minstrels, under the direction of the charming and humorous Randy Sparks, will be back with us again this year. Enjoy your favorite folk songs performed since 1961 by NCM. Relive old memories or make new ones as you get an education in the history of American Folk Tradition.

The proceeds will be split between the Fair Oaks Theatre Festival building fund and the New Christy Minstrel Foundation, which provides free concerts and sheet music to public schools.

    Last year's concert was great, and a sell-out as I recall. Brought back many memories. Thanks for the heads up!
