About The Festival

Hearth and Hallows Creative Event Management is a boutique event production company dedicated to creating immersive, culturally resonant experiences that bring communities together. Known for our attention to detail, storytelling-driven approach, and inclusive programming, we specialize in festivals and events that celebrate local heritage, folklore, and creativity.
We are the proud producers of the Kentucky Folklore Festival, a wholly unique celebration of the strange, storied, and spirited traditions that make Kentucky unforgettable. Originally launched as the Battletown Witch Festival, this beloved event began as a tribute to a single local legend—and has since evolved into a vibrant, statewide gathering of cryptid callers, artisan vendors, food trucks, witch dancers, costumed contestants, folk historians, and curious minds from across the United States.
Our deep love for the Battletown Witch Festival remains at the heart of what we do. That same spirit of wonder, community, and curiosity has inspired us to expand the vision—to embrace all the myths, legends, and cultural oddities that make Kentucky weird, wonderful, and worth celebrating.
With each passing year, the festival grows more dynamic and diverse, connecting people through the shared language of folklore, tradition, and pride in place. Under the creative leadership of Hearth and Hallows, the Kentucky Folklore Festival is not just growing in size, but deepening its impact, identity, and ability to preserve Kentucky’s past while embracing its future.
