2007 - 2008Our Mission Statement
The Portland Oregon Old-Time Music Gathering is a grassroots volunteer-run festival that aims to celebrate and enrich the community of traditional Old-Time Appalachian Stringband Musicians. We wish to create an environment where the music is as meaningful as it is when we gather to swap tunes and play in a friend's living room or meet to play at a campsite during a summer festival.As such, we feel that it is important to keep the event non-profit and volunteer run; whether we are taking tickets, sweeping the floor, organizing an event, or playing music for a concert; we are all volunteers contributing to make this thing happen.
The Old-Time Gathering is sponsored and organized by Bubbaville, a non-profit all-volunteer organization designed to support traditional music and dance in Portland, Oregon.
