Joe will be at the 2006 National Folk Festival in Richmond Virginia along with several other artists, artisans and representatives of the Jacksonville Center

I believe that Joe will be giving whittling demonstrations. If you plan to come to the festival, please look for the Jacksonville Center entourage near the Crooked Road/Bull Mountain/Round the Mountain booths
