GREENSBORO, N.C.

EMF’s Board of Directors is comprised of individuals from the music, medical, business, academic, legal, and volunteer communities of the Triad. It is the Board of Directors’ responsibility to provide guidance and oversight in the direction and operation of the Festival, as well as to sustain support and audience awareness each season. “The addition of these five talented and accomplished community leaders to our board – and their desire to serve – are a testament to the value and importance of EMF to our city, the Triad, and North Carolina,” noted EMF Board Chair Melanie Tuttle. “Our Festival is a nationally recognized cultural and educational gem. We look forward to their sharing their experience, knowledge, and judgment with us.”
Planning is already underway for EMF’s 60th anniversary season, June 26 – July 31, 2021, in Greensboro, NC. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 in-person Festival was canceled.
