The National Women’s Music Festival is a four-day musical and cultural extravaganza that incorporates all facets of women’s lives.

Volunteer opportunities and work-exchange of four-hour work-shifts is available for reduced-price registration. This is limited and arrangements must be made prior to the Festival. || $150-$400
