12 Minutes Max Spokane Fall Edition

12 Minutes Max Spokane is a performance lab that seeks to foster new and experimental work by artists based in the Inland Northwest Region. Artists present 12 minutes or less of material, while the audience gets the opportunity to be the first to see new works and works-in-progress. These works can range from performance art to dance, and screen dance to experimental theater.

12 Minutes Max was first developed by On the Boards in Seattle in 1981. There are now similar programs in Vancouver, B.C., Bellingham, Salt Lake City, Chicago, and Houston. This model has served as the jumping-off point for many new works of art.

Event: Opens November 11
28th Annual Fall Folk Festival

The Spokane Fall Folk Festival is the premier annual multicultural event in the Inland Northwest. Since 1996 the Folk Festival, sponsored by the Spokane Folklore Society, has been bringing music and dance from many different traditions to the two-day event each November. This Festival showcases regional musical artists and performing groups who represent cultures from around the globe and has inspired similarly styled festivals. What makes this festival shine is that we advertise our schedules and highlight performers in advance to encourage attendance. In 2023 the festival received the Inlander’s Best Of poll award for 3rd for the Best Arts Festival. Spokane Folklore Society is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to fostering American and International cultures in Spokane.
