Welcome

You are visiting the online home of Long Island, New York’s leading volunteer-led nonprofit presenter of live folk, roots and acoustic music. The Folk Music Society of Huntington (FMSH) co-presents the monthly Hard Luck Cafe concert series and twice-monthly NorthShore Original Open Mic (NOOM) with Huntington’s Cinema Arts Centre on Wednesday nights in its Sky Room, as well as a folk jam & sing-along one Sunday a month at the South Huntington Public Library.  Information about these and other events, along with an extensive links section highlighting our members and Acoustic Allies, can be found elsewhere on this website.

Message from the President of FMSH

Founded in the late 1960s, the Folk Music Society of Huntington (FMSH) has been in continuous operation for more than 50 years. Running an organization that puts on monthly concerts, a monthly acoustic jam, and an annual folk festival — and supports other events — can be challenging under the best of circumstances.

We have expanded our musical offerings. In addition to our free monthly folk jams at the South Huntington Public Library and the ticketed Hard Luck Café concert series at the Cinema Arts Centre on the third Wednesday of each month, we are delighted to also be partnering with the Cinema Arts Centre in co-presenting the NorthShore Original Open Mic (NOOM) in the Cinema’s Sky Room on two other Wednesdays each month from 7-10 p.m.

Thank you for your support.
