Summary
The Dawn Theater Governance Board approved the Hillsdale Renaissance Folk Festival for March 7, 2026 by a 3-1 vote after discussion of event fees, liquor sales, liability and orders of operation; Finch presented requested additional information prior to the vote.
The Dawn Theater Governance Board voted on Dec. 30, 2025 to approve the Hillsdale Renaissance Folk Festival, scheduled for March 7, 2026, after discussing the event fee schedule, liquor sales plans, liability concerns and orders of operation.
Board member Felicia Finch presented additional information that had been requested by the board. Tim Sullivan moved to approve the event and Finch seconded; the motion carried 3-1. Minutes record a ‘‘lengthy discussion’’ on fees and liability but do not list individual votes beyond the tally.
The approval allows the event to use the Dawn Theater subject to any conditions the full TIFA or staff may require; the minutes do not specify additional conditions or fee amounts. Any liquor service and liability issues are to be managed under existing venue policies and applicable laws.
