FoundyFest

A one-day takeover at The Foundy on October 3rd, 2026, dedicated to the grit and craftsmanship of Appalachian arts and music. Our festival is a curated environment where national icons and regional pioneers converge to celebrate WNC culture and raise awareness for the RADA Foundation's Creative Campus.

Produced by the Leona Wild Collective, FoundyFest serves as a primary vehicle for our mutual aid initiatives. Proceeds are directly reinvested into the WNC music industry, the growth of Leona Wild Collective, and the arts community, providing essential resources and empowering the musicians who serve as the heartbeat of our region.
