Hudson West Folk Festival
November 16, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 10:00 pm
An all day Americana/Folk/Roots music festival in Jersey City.
This year’s Hudson West Fest will be held at the Nimbus Arts Center in downtown Jersey City, a new custom built performance space. We will again have the beautifully original stage backdrops, as well as artwork throughout the venue. Our delightful food vendor and several artisan shops will participate and, of course, the much requested, free music workshops will continue to be a major feature.
A blend of art, community and music
