Mia Smith passed away on September 25, 2021 after a sudden medical emergency at the young age of 52 years.
Mia was part of the New Richmond Bluegrass Festival family since the very beginning in 2003.
For most of our guests, Mia was the first person you saw at the gate upon arriving at the festival.
For those of us who were involved with the festival, she was a close friend and as the person responsable for volunteers, she made sure that the chaos of organizing the festival looked easy.
Mia, you will be missed by all of us.
