The Baltimore Old Time Music Festival is produced in Partnership with the Center for Cultural Vibrancy (CCV). CCV sees strength and beauty in cultural diversity. A healthy community is one where cultural traditions are vibrant, dynamic, and resonant. Traditional arts and culture possess a unique ability to bridge cultural divides and humanize the “other.” The folk and traditional arts are not simply pleasurable diversions but at the very heart of how individuals express their connection to community, identity, and sense of place in the world.
