Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame

In 2019, the Boch Center expanded and launched the Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame (FARHOF), Boston's newest cultural and educational initiative. It celebrates the lifeblood of America’s musical and cultural heritage. 

Led by legendary musicians and music executives including Keb Mo’, Joan Baez and Noel Paul Stookey and curated by Deana McCloud and Bob Santelli of the Museum Collective, the Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame (FARHOF) is dedicated to honoring history, while also building the foundation of the next generation of Folk, Americana, and Roots musicians. Housed in the Wang Theatre, the Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame (FARHOF) celebrates Folk, Americana and Roots music through displays, memorabilia, artifacts, events, lectures, exhibits and concerts.
