Milwaukee Folk Fair Nov 19-21

Received from Michael K in Madison:

Milwaukee's Holiday Folk Fair, always the weekend before Thanksgiving,
offers several opportunities for dancing to Milwaukee's outstanding folk
orchestras, as well as authentic ethnic food, a world market, and dance
performances by dozens of the city's vibrant ethnic groups -- more than
fifty participate in the city's flagship ethnic festival, a tradition for
more than half a century!
