Pickin' Central at the Sisters Folk Festival
We’ve had a Banjo “Contest” in years past, but that competitive thing just didn’t appeal to some folks. The crowd loved it, but there were still some banjo players among them lurking, not picking.
So we invite you to join the guitar & mandolin players and let 'er rip.

This year we’d like to have as many pickers picking as possible, so instead of a competition, we’ve opened "Pickin' Central” Friday and Saturday nights from 9:30 pm - 12:30 am (or whenever) at the Sisters Area Chamber of Commerce, 291 E. Main Avenue. This will be a moderated picking and song session for all of you Festivalgoing pickers.

What we’d like to see is a bunch of folks pickin’ and grinnin’ ...and that includes banjo jokes. If you have a twist on that old “perfect pitch” gag, we’re ready to hear it!
If you can pick, plunk, strum, frail, clawhammer, pluck, bite or bow a banjo, we’d like to see you do it!

If you can yodel, holler, hogcall, clog, stomp, rap or testify at the same time... well, we dare ya.

Come on over to Pickin' Central & have a blast playing with other enthusiasts!
