The mission of the Eugene Folklore Society is to promote a variety of folk dancing, folk music and folk traditions and to create opportunities for community participation. We are a ‘folk gateway’ for people new to our area and for long-term residents just discovering traditional music and dance. We love sharing our passion for all kinds of folk traditions! The Eugene Folklore Society is a volunteer-based 501(c)3 charitable nonprofit organization, established in 1978.
The Eugene Folklore Society values equality and mutual respect. We value the diversity of gender, age, race, ethnicity, national origin, range of abilities, sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression. We actively cultivate a climate of purposeful inclusion of all.
It’s all about the community of music and dancing in the folk traditions. Come join us!
