Leading up to the festival, we will be offering Camp Ponderoo, an immersive bluegrass jam camp at Sisters Art Works from Sunday, June 18-Wednesday, June 21.

We’re also planning the Ponderoo Arts Experience with workshops and artist sessions that explore self-expression through the visual arts with the intention of bringing our local artists together to work and play in creativity, as well as showcase their work to the public. Stay tuned for further details!
