WHAT IS IT?
The National Public Folklife Project Directory is a living compendium of community-engaged and/or issue-driven folklife projects which exemplify the intersection of traditional arts and education, outreach, artist employment, or health and well-being and which demonstrate the capacity of folklife to address community needs. If you have questions, comments, or want more information feel free to reach out via the Contact page.
