MetroWest’s historic folk scene comes alive again this August with a festival that’s one of a kind. On Aug. 17, Touchable Stories will be sponsoring a free revival folk festival in Hopkinton honoring the Old Vienna Kaffeehaus. Billed as a “nostalgic journey” through the venue’s history, the event will feature more than a dozen artists and special guests.
