The Ashokan Northern Week 2024 will be held at The Ashokan Center in Olivebridge, New York, USA from July 14th to 20th, 2024.
The week’s events will begin with a “pre-camp BBQ dinner and dance” on July 13th. Attendees can dine, dance, or just enjoy a great evening of New England music and dancing under Ashokan’s outdoor pavilion!
