White Springs hosts the oldest state folk festival in America, the Florida Folk Festival. Its tranquil rural setting, gentle streams and bubbling springs is a perfect backdrop for outdoor and cultural activities. The Suwannee River is a popular setting for outdoor enthusiasts with lots of activities available for visitors. Nearby Big Shoals State Forest is the location of Florida's only whitewater rafting (seasonal). The Stephen Foster State Folk Culture Center honors the memory of Stephen Foster, composer of many early American folk songs such as "The Old Folks At Home" and "Oh Susanna". Classes at the centre demonstrate the creation of arts and crafts from raw materials as traditional and contemporary crafts people practice their art and give demonstrations.
