  1. Public folklore

    Public folklore is the term for the work done by folkloristics folklorists in public settings in the United States and Canada outside of universities and colleges, such as arts councils, museums , folklife festivals , radio stations, etc. The term is actually short for public sector folklore and was first used by members of the American Folklore Society in the early 1970s.

They called their work applied folklore , a related but distinct paradigm. The birth of public folklore can be traced back to the creation of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress in 1970, by an act of Congress of the United States Congress , sponsored by Sen. Ralph Yarborough D TX and written by Green and then Senate aide Jim Hightower . Other national programs were later established at the Smithsonian Institution and the National Endowment for the Arts NEA , where prominent folklorists such as Ralph Rinzler , Alan Jabbour , and Bess Lomax Hawes worked.
