Youth Discoveries is Summerfolk's signature program designed to nurture and showcase the next generation of folk performers.
It is created to give young artists the opportunity to experience what it’s like to perform at a major folk festival, the program offers valuable mentorship, workshops, performance opportunities, and industry networking. Youth Discoveries also fosters a strong sense of community and connection among emerging performers, helping them build confidence, develop their craft, and take their first steps into the Canadian folk music scene.
