Featuring LIVE Music: Come early (after 6:30 PM) to the Met and hear Keith McManus, Bob Shank, Rachael Eddy, and Karen Wade on fiddles, guitars, and banjo of The Woodticks. This band plays traditional old-time string music. Inspired by the stories told through the songs, the harmonies both sweet and discordant, and the infectious rhythm of the music, they set off to pick up where generations before had left off. The tunes they play are traditional and tell a tale of a time long ago. They will also play during the intermission.

Bonus: The Banff Mountain Film Festival is the kick-off to the Third Annual Morgantown Adventure Film and Photo Festival presented by Adventure's Edge.

The festival provides an opportunity for local filmmakers and photographers whose hearts and souls abide in West Virginia to showcase their adventures from near and far. Artists are invited to submit films, slide shows or photographs featuring adventure sports or the outdoors. The festival includes a "locals'" film festival, gear swap, photo exhibit and climbing shoe demo.
