New England Folk Music ArchivesUnited States
The New England Folk Music Archives preserves, promotes and documents the ongoing cultural legacy of folk music and its connections to New England through education, collaboration and entertainment.
Based on collections from the 1960s era folk revival and stretching to the present, the establishing collections include photographs, recordings, and memorabilia from the Club 47, the Cambridge and Boston folk music scenes, the Newport Folk Festival, and the Old Vienna Kaffeehaus.
Our educational outreach, Bringing the Legacy to Life, expands programming through songs, narratives, and artifacts to collect the rich stories of individuals and communities. In many cases, this is the first time these materials have been documented and thus preserved.
