Happy 4th of July, everyone!

Today we bring you our 6th fabulous Flickr gallery of the 2012 Festival. Check it out here!

You can upload and share your own images to the 2012 Smithsonian Folklife Festival Flickr Group here. We pick a few of our favorite visitor photos or videos every day, and take them to a wider audience by featuring them on our Festival blog.

Twitter users, follow our Flickr Top Ten galleries with #FlickrTopTen and follow the Festival with #2012Folklife.

Stay tuned for a new gallery each day.
