This is more than an economically-priced vacation in a beautiful spot. The benefits continue after you return home with new musicianship and inspiration in your mountain dulcimer playing.
 
The week is produced by nationally known mountain dulcimer pioneer, author and performer Lois Hornbostel. If you have attended the mountain dulcimer weeks Lois has produced in the past 23 years at universities in Boone and Cullowhee, NC, you know the quality, energy and innovation her events have always had. This new independent dulcimer week offers financial and creative freedom to produce an improved program with more innovative possibilities. The location is idyllic yet easy to reach, and offers us just the right setting to interact more as a community. Hence, the name, "DULCIMERVILLE"!
