In 2006, Bob Hastings was the winner of the Rick Thum hammered
dulcimer. All who knew Bob loved him. He was one of the most
loving and lovable people we ever
knew. Bob attended
every festival. Even after
struggling with heart problems
for several months, Bob, Judy and
Laney attended
the finale concert for the 2009 MDG&FF. Just
four days later,
Bob passed away. He will be sorely
missed.
The 2010 MDG&FF is dedicated to Bob
and his family.
The Memphis Dulcimer Gathering & Folk Festival seeks to provide
the highest quality instruction in a warm and friendly atmosphere. We encourage interaction among students and staff.
In order to retain the personal feel of the festival and to keep workshops small enough to enable individual attention and
a non-threatening environment, registration is limited to 125 workshop participants.
Midday concerts are free and lunch ($8 per person per day) can
be ordered without being registered for classes. Admission to the Saturday night concert (7:00 p.m.) is $10 per
person.
Your donations to MDG, Inc. are tax-deductible. We are looking
for sponsors for this year's festival. If you or someone you know would like to make a tax-deductible donation and be
listed in the program for the festival, please e-mail Lee or call 901-877-7763. You may wish to honor someone or remember
someone who has passed away with a donation of $10 or more. These remembrances will also be listed in the festival program.
