Session Overview
We are a small arts and agricultural nonprofit in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia seeking help developing a marketing strategy for a folk arts festival themed around using marginalized voices to reclaim the Murder Ballad music genre planned for October. We expect to be selling tickets or doing a suggested donation approach starting on in mid-August and would love to get some guidance before then!

Nonprofit Overview
We are an arts and agricultural nonprofit growing a resilient creative community by sharing time and natural space to develop the art of storytelling while literally nourishing our neighbors. We must imagine a better future where we celebrate differences that make us collectively stronger to grow that future.
Our collective is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, working to support arts programming, organizing professional creative development, and seeking community input about interpreting the property’s past—which includes ties to colonization and human bondage.
MidMountain operates from a five-acre retreat on the James River in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia that is also Andrea "River" Peterson's artist studio. The grounds are also being developed into a sustainable food forest with plans for agritourism and mutual aid distribution thanks to a River Buffer restoration partnership with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the James River Association, and the Virginia Department of Forestry.
