Louisiana's Regional Folklife Program

Louisiana's Regional Folklife Program is a cooperative endeavor between Louisiana universities and the Louisiana Folklife Program within the Division of the Arts. The primary goal of the program is to provide in-depth documentation of Louisiana's folk traditions and to facilitate its appropriate use by the public and cultural tourism.

Through grants to the universities, the Division of the Arts provides funds for a folklorist in each section of the state. The folklorists have the following mission:

To identify and document folk cultural traditions and artists,

To work with community groups to present their folk traditions to the public, and

To provide information about folklife through media coverage, university lectures, and public presentations. Louisiana Regional Folklife Program
