The Portsmouth Maritime Folk Festival is extremely pleased to announce

that reports of our demise were somewhat exaggerated. A rushing wave of

support from the maritime music community buoyed a number of volunteers

to step up, including most of the new board. There WILL be a Festival

in 2020, and we are working on the details now.

When we thought the Festival was ending, we cut back on fundraising…

so now we need to build up our reserves to ensure a stable long-term future.

The outgoing president and the new board have combined to offer

a matching donation challenge of $2,700. So make your year-end tax

deductible gift now, and the donation will be DOUBLED to help keep PMFF

sailing strongly into the future.

If you missed the bucket-shaking volunteers at this year’s festival, here’s your chance to make up. Visit pmffest.org, and select Donate at the top, or go straight to https://squareup.com/store/portsmouth-maritime-folk-festival/ and make a donation.

Fair winds,

the whole PMFF family
