The 37th Annual Anchorage Folk Festival
January 22 to February 1, 2026
Warning—GoFundMe Scam
October 27, 2025
It has been brought to the attention of the Board of the Anchorage Folk Festival that a GoFundMe account was set up in the name of the Festival. This is not an authorized fundraising attempt by the Board or any Festival-related individual. This is a SCAM. Do not attempt to donate to or search this on the GoFundMe site.
Anchorage Folk Festival Board President Pamela Pope confirms that no donations had yet been made to the fraudulent ANC FF site on GoFundMe’s platform, and now we, the real Anchorage Folk Festival, have claimed ownership of the email verification. Now no one can do this again without us being contacted for verification. According to GoFundMe’s website, it will take 35–40 days for the fraudulent donation site to be taken down, but meanwhile it is monitored. We all wish it will come down much sooner.
The Anchorage Folk Festival doesn’t fund raise through online crowdfunding sites. We show music documentaries! Thanks to all who attended Sunday’s Double Feature.
Sincerely, The Anchorage Folk Festival Board
