Designed by Steve Hepburn, your coin celebrates the folk festivals that fill the air with music onwarm summer nights. A viewpoint from the back of the stage places the focus on the performers: the banjo player and percussionist in the foreground, and the guitar-playing singer who is facing the crowd. Theimage is framed by stylized icons that represent popular outdoor activities and sights in Canada: (clockwise from top) Niagara Falls; a Christmas tree; a rodeo; wine tasting; dogsledding; folk music; cherry blossoms; maple syrup tasting; whale watching; tulips; coastal drives; and the aurora borealis. The obverse features the year “2019” andface value “3 DOLLARS”, and theframed effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.

• Folk festivals aren’t just a showcase of folk singers and songwriters—they also feature storytellers, craftspeople, food, workshops, dancers and others performers.
• Folk festivals aren’t limited to a single musical genre, either. They can include performances of traditional music, Celtic, blues, bluegrass, gospel and more. It’s a great opportunity to discover a new artist or re-discover a favourite musical act, whether local or international.

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box.
