30th Anniversary Celebration, September 3rd and 20th at the Texas Folklife Gallery - USAby Harley Jones |
Featuring Texas Roots Music by Debra Peters & the Love Saints, Mariachi Corbetas, Los Trovadores, and the Greg Izor Blues Band Austin, Texas – September 3, 2014 – This year marks Texas Folklife’s 30th anniversary. The non-profit began in 1984 with a handful of committed, young folklorists who sought to preserve the traditional culture of the state. Since that time, Texas Folklife has preserved and presented the diverse cultures and living heritage of the Lone Star State, honored the cultural traditions passed down in communities across the state, and helped to explore those traditions importance in contemporary society. There will be a year long celebration of the 30th anniversary with exhibits, talks, seminars and of course lots of music. |
