Fun prizes, recreation, good cause!
About PICKBALL: Who says sports and art can't mix? In 2023, the KC Folk Fest Board wanted to host an inclusive, musician-friendly sportsball-type thing to raise funds for the festival. What began as a dad joke about picking guitars and playing ball turned into our first “Pickball” game in 2023 at the Swope Park Baseball diamonds in KCMO. With several successful seasons, you could say we're on a roll!
