In collaboration with the Studio ARTour and the Faribault Fall Festival, the Northfield Arts Guild presents: The Rice County Fall Festival!
The Rice County Fall Festival (RCFF) will take place in various venues across Dundas, Faribault, and Northfield between October 2nd-4th….featuring classic elements of the Studio ARTour and Faribault’s annual Fall Festival, live music performances, and projected video art- from local artists.
In the fall of 2026, we kicked off the first-ever Rice County Fall Festival!
Over three days, Northfield, Dundas and Faribault came together for live music, dance, art and food. 11 performing acts shared Folk, Mexican-American Conjunto, Colombian dance, Karen dance, South Asian classical dance, Swing tunes from the 20s-30s, Indie pop, Somali music of the 50s-80s, and more!
