Every summer in Stockton, California, for nearly 70 years, dance and world music enthusiasts have come together to learn and celebrate traditional dances and music from around the globe. Participants can choose to attend one or both weeks, over which time they have the opportunity to learn dozens of dances from more than 10 different countries. READ THE DETAILED HISTORY As the first folk dance camp on the West Coast, it is no surprise that Stockton Folk Dance Camp has been characterized as the largest and most comprehensive camp in the country. Founded in 1948 by Lawton Harris in collaboration with a number of other key volunteers, Stockton Folk Dance Camp has been a major promoter of international folk dance, and has presented over 5,800 traditional dances with the help of more than 210 teachers and thousands of students.
