The Israel Folkdance Festival of Boston was sprouted in 1977 based on the founders' wish to create a great thing by sharing. The Festival continues to be organized on a volunteer basis by the Board of the Directors and the performers. It is sponsored by Campus Activities Complex at MIT.
Every Festival is preceded by a free and open to the public dance and ice cream party held the night before, typically in the Newton or Brookline area.
The Board of Directors as of 2022 is:
- David Beckman
- Aaron Bental (né Beckman)
- Janie Chefitz
- Shira Frager
- Susan Gruber
- Ruth Leah Kahan
