Description: City Lore’s mission is to foster New York City – and America’s – living cultural heritage through education and public programs. They document, present, and advocate for New York City’s grassroots cultures to ensure their living legacy in stories and histories, places and traditions. They work in four cultural domains: urban folklore and history; preservation; arts education; and grassroots poetry traditions. In each of these realms, they see ourselves as furthering cultural equity and modeling a better world with projects as dynamic and diverse as New York City itself.

Description: The Graduate Program in Folklore and Folklife at the University of Pennsylvania began in 1962 under the direction of MacEdward Leach, a medievalist who taught in the English department, and whose sound recordings from Jamaica, Newfoundland, and the Southern Mountains launched the Folklore Archive. Over the next four decades nearly 250 students earned the Ph.D. in Folklore from Penn. In 1999, the Department of Folklore and Folklife was restructured as a Graduate Program and a Center for Folklore and Ethnography (open 1999-2008).
