Finnfest 2013 - June 19th-23rd
On Midsummer's Eve 1865 some thirty Finns and Sami, landed on the shores of the Portage Canal in present day Hancock, and trudged the steep hill to Swedetown where they immediately began to work in the copper mines. Thus began the Finnish presence in the Copper Country - one of the nation's most significant Finnish-American communites. By 1920, the region's Finns numbered in the thousands and the great strikes and tragedies of 1913 defined Finnish-American history and identity to this very day. Celebrating and honoring Finnish-American culture, including its inextricable connections to the 1913 unrest, the Copper Country will host FinnFest USA - a national gathering of Finns. Five days of events include lectures, workshops, and demonstrations; the Tori market with ethnic and regional wares, music and food; concerts, performances, dances and evening events; exhibits and gallery shows; local tours; sports and games; parade; Midsummer bonfire; street theater; special guests and VIPs; and much, much more. FinnFest 2013 in true Copper Country style with copper over gold, sauna over spa, and pasty over pate. More information is available at http://www.finnfestusa2013.org.
