“The North Carolina Folk Festival is dedicated to honoring, celebrating, and sharing the meaningful ways in which communities express their creativity and cultural traditions through music, dance, food, crafts, and other folk arts from across America and the world through its flagship annual event each September in downtown Greensboro.

The festival is a FREE admission, three-day event that continues the legacy of the National Folk Festival, which was held in Greensboro from 2015–2017. In the tradition of “The National,” the North Carolina Folk Festival features performing groups representing a diverse array of cultural traditions from around the world on multiple stages, including continuous music and dance performances, a makers marketplace, regional and ethnic foods, festival merchandise and more!”

In this comedic thriller, a trio of crooks relentlessly pursue a young American (Audrey Hepburn) through Paris in an attempt to recover the fortune her dead husband stole from them. The only person she can trust is a suave, mysterious stranger (Cary Grant). A glittering emblem of 1960s style and macabre wit that goes deliciously dark.

Tickets: Adults $8.00, Seniors $7.00
