Ocracoke AlivePosts

🎵 Behind every performance and joyful moment at Ocrafolk is a whole community of support. This year, 45% of the festival’s costs were covered by our amazing sponsors, whose generosity keeps the arts thriving on Ocracoke.
👏 Let’s also give a huge round of applause for our volunteers—you are the true backbone of the festival. With over 200 volunteer shifts filled this year, you welcomed guests, set up stages, and kept things moving smoothly all weekend. Ocrafolk isn’t possible without your energy, dedication, and big hearts. Thank you!
🎻 And finally, a huge thanks to our incredible festival staff, who work tirelessly to make Ocrafolk happen each year. In an effort to boost efficiency, Ocracoke Alive has begun experimenting with cloning its organizers. Pictured here is David Tweedie (aka Fiddler Dave), who seems to be ~beside himself~ with how well things turned out. We suspect his son Lachlan may have had something to do with these shenanigans, but we might never know…

Three days of music, art, laughter, and community on this little island we love so much. From the first notes on Friday to the last singalong on Sunday, thank you to every performer, artisan, volunteer, sponsor, and attendee who made Ocrafolk unforgettable.
We come for the talent—but we come back for each other. See you next year ❤️
