Gammelgården Museum and Scandia Heritage Alliance join forces to offer a free family-friendly event featuring folk music; Swedish and Hmong children's history and art activities; arts & crafts fair; artist demonstrations; and historic building tours.
MUSIC PERFORMANCES
Spelmansstämman is a long-standing Swedish folk music tradition based on outdoor gatherings (stämma) of Swedish fiddlers (spelman) to share music, friendship, and playing. At a traditional stämma, a small group of musicians stand in a circle and share tunes they have written. Gammelgården's 34th annual Spelmansstämman will feature multiple musicians performing throughout the day. If you are a fiddler, bring your own instrument and join the traditional sharing of tunes during the interlude!
Proceeds from the event support both Gammelgården Museum and Scandia Heritage Alliance.
If you have questions, call Gammelgården Museum at 651-433-5053 or Scandia Heritage Alliance at 651-233-0267.
