Mission
The Festivals Directory NW started in the fall of 1998. Our mission statement, then and now, is “to support and inform festivals audiences, participants, organizers, and service providers of our Northwest cultural resources; and to encourage the use of Northwest crafts people, musicians, artists, performers, and businesses, and to make each other aware of the resources for improving our day-to-day life through these unique events and fine people involved.”
