The 20th Annual Banjo Gathering was held in Alexandria, Virginia, from November 2nd-5th. 

    Presentations ranged from the earliest history of the banjo to post-war Gretsch tenor banjos, and everything in between! We visited the Smithsonian National Museums of African American History and Culture and American History. For a complete look at the schedule, click here. If you are interested in taking our survey about the Gathering to help us plan for the 20th Anniversary Gathering next year, please click here. 
     Special thanks to Greg Adams, Peter Szego, Kathryn Weidener, Jim Bollman, and Ann Hough for making this event a great success! Stay tuned to the blog for more sounds, sights, and stories from 20 years of the Banjo Gathering.
