Friends of the Festival This year, we have started Friends of the Festival — a wonderful opportunity for our supporters to become more involved with the Festival. # Bringing you into closer contact with the Festival: The Friends not only support the Festival finan- cially, but also learn how to become involved in cultural education and preservation. # Benefits include: Thlk Story, a newsletter written by our staff which takes you behind the scenes of cultural research, a discount on Smithsonian/ Folkways recordings, the Festival program book, the Festival T-shirt, and other items. # Meet the Friends' staff: Stop by the Friends tent on the lawn of the National Museum of American History (facing the Mall) during the Festival to learn more. You can also reach us at the Center after the Festival at (202) 287-3210, or by mailing in the postcard below. YES! / would like to become more involved with the Festival by joining the Friends of the Festival. / understand that my assistance will play an integral part in supporting research and education about traditional cultures. Please send me more information about the Friends. NAME ADDRESS. CITY STATE .ZIP_ Traditional Crafts We have also started the Smithsonian Collection of Traditional Crafts Catalog. Crafts today: Master craftspeople, who embody the wealth of American grassroots traditions, often can- not support themselves with their crafts. Nor are they able to pass on their knowledge because apprentices are unwilling to enter a profession that has an uncertain future. Year after year, those skills come closer to being lost forever as the tradition bearers pass away. # Smithsonian Collection of Traditional Crafts: To preserve these crafts, artisans need a pub- lic to purchase handmade craft objects. With an outlet for their work, artisans will be able to make and sell their goods and preserve an American legacy. Their children and apprentices may see a future in these traditions. By bringing together skilled artisans and support- ive buyers we will help preserve these crafts and build a national appreciation for America's grassroots cultures. Your role in the preservation of American craft: , The premiere offering of objects from the catalog will be in the Festival Sales tent. These creations represent many different cultural traditions and are some of the finest pieces being crafted in the United States today. We invite you to take an active role in the preservation of these crafts by coming to our tent, learning about these objects, and purchasing them to enjoy in your own home.
Smithsonian/Folkways Recordings you can hear the world 7he Center for Folklife Programs & Cultural Studies supports the con- tinuity and integrity of traditional arts and cultures by overseeing Folkways activities as a museum of sound, a non-profit business, and an archive. Established in 1988, Smithsonian/Folkways Recordings builds on the legacy of the original Folkways Records (founded 1948) and the vision of its founder, Moses Asch. Reissues from the historic catalogue feature extensive and updated notes, superbly remastered sound, and often include previously unreleased material. New releases maintain the breadth of the original catalogue in the areas of ethnic, folk, blues, blue- grass, jazz, spoken word, gospel, classical, and children's music and videos. More than 2,500 titles from Folkways, Cook, Paredon, and Smithsonian/Folkways Recordings are also available.
