Why be a Member of the KFF Foundation?

MEMBERSHIP = OWNERSHIP
KFFF members own the Kerrville Folk Festival, our flagship event, and additionally these amazing programs:
- Music at the Mansion (co-produced with Schreiner University)
- Grassy Hill New Folk Competition for Emerging Songwriters
- Welcome Home Festival
- Music Camp for Teens (co-produced with the Boys & Girls Club of Bandera County)
MEMBERSHIP = INFORMED VOICES
Throughout the year, KFFF members receive newsletters from the Executive Director and the KFFF Board regarding the programs, financials, volunteer opportunities, and gatherings such as Summit meetings, wherein members and volunteers convene in order plan for future Foundation activities. Members are provided information and vote on candidates for Board positions and by-law changes, and members are invited to member-only gatherings to celebrate and socialize.


MEMBERSHIP = SUPPORT
KFFF is funded by memberships, ticket sales, donations, grants, and festival retail sales. Collectively, this income covers the costs of Festival operations, programs, the site, capital projects and administration – all building the path to a sustainable future.
MEMBERSHIP = REWARDS
During the Festival, Foundation members who visit the Foundation’s booth at Kennedy Theater typically receive a Foundation T-shirt designed specifically for the upcoming membership year and several other gifts.
Most importantly, all members receive the gift of knowing they support a community characterized by a spirit of safety and love for one another, and its love for the power of songs that inspire us to grow emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. Each member is celebrated with “Welcome Home” and extended gratitude for joining this community that celebrates life with authenticity, acceptance and appreciation for art.

Membership Structure
Foundation Memberships are available at different levels and are structured annually. Memberships last one full calendar year, so the date you join or renew is your membership anniversary date. Annual membership dues may be paid once each year, or be set up for automatic renewal annually. There is also an option for automatic monthly billing that allows dues to be paid in a monthly “subscription” to your annual membership. Monthly subscriptions are available at any level of membership. Because there are additional credit card and processing fees associated with multiple payments, there is a small fee added to each monthly payment to cover those costs.
The KFF Foundation’s Annual General Membership Meeting is typically held each year during Kerrville Folk Festival. You are invited to attend and vote for open positions on the KFF Foundation Board of Directors and any proposed by-law changes.
To be eligible to vote:
- a member’s dues must be paid in full at least 24hrs before the vote and currently be a member during the vote.
- For members making monthly payments, the member must have paid at least 3 consecutive monthly payments and be current on payments at least 24 hours prior to the date of a membership vote.
Your annual membership is active for one full calendar year from the date your dues were processed. Although bylaw amendments allow for changes in the membership structure and levels, they cannot apply retroactively; as in, the bylaws in effect at the time a person joins or renews apply to that person’s membership for one calendar year. If you have any questions regarding membership, please call or email the festival office for clarification. (830)257-3600 – info@kerrvillefolkfestival.org
*Foundation by-laws limit each membership to one vote. If two people prefer to each have a vote in the general election, then separate memberships must be purchased.
