    The American Folklife Center was created by the U.S. Congress with 
passage of Public Law 94-201, the American Folklife Preservation Act, 
in 1976. The Center is directed to ``preserve and present American 
folklife'' through programs of research, documentation, archival 
preservation, live presentation, exhibition, publications, 
dissemination, training, and other activities involving the many folk 
cultural traditions of the United States. The Center is under the 
general guidance of a Board of Trustees composed of members from 
Federal agencies and private life widely recognized for their interest 
in American folk traditions and arts.
    The Center is structured with a small core group of versatile 
professionals who both carry out programs themselves [[Page 20512]] and 
oversee projects done by contract by others. In the brief period of the 
Center's operation it has energetically carried out its mandate with 
programs that provide coordination, assistance, and model projects for 
the field of American folklife.

    Dated: April 10, 1995.
Alan Jabbour,
Director American Folklife Center.
