mission
The mission as stated in the first newsletter from 1964 -
| The purpose of the organization as stated in its by-laws is to “further the understanding, investigation, appreciation, and performance of the traditional folk music and folk lore of the American people.” Our future includes monthly meetings open to the membership from October to June consisting primarily of a program on folk lore. These programs will take the form of presentations by traditional singers, discussions and lectures by folklorists and possibly films. We also hope to sponsor special events in folk music in the area, drawing on not only the talent within the membership, but also upon nationally-known and respected performers and lecturers. |
