According to Festival Director Michelle Rhodes, this year’s fundraiser brought in $55,000, about $5,000 more than last year, which she said was significant considering that there were about 30 fewer attendees due to remodeling that forced the event to be held in a smaller space. This year’s festival, set for May 1-9, marks the 131st year for Washington’s oldest, longest, continuous-running festival.
