Information About

Northwest Folklife




Northwest Folklife was founded in 1971 by the Seattle Folklore Society , the National Park Service , the National Folk Festival Association (now the National Council For The Traditional Arts ), and the City of Seattle, as part of the Park Service's urban outreach program to allow the people of its Northwest Region (including Alaska ) to publicly present what they "make for their own use and do for their own entertainment." The first festival was held in 1972 .
