Celebration of the various cultural groups of New Jersey
Podcast
The first two seasons of our podcast:
“New Jersey Folk”
The New Jersey Folk Podcast features stories and conversations about folk arts, traditional culture and heritage in the state of New Jersey and beyond. The podcast is part of the New Jersey Folk Festival, a project of the Department of American Studies at Rutgers University New Brunswick. Episodes are produced by students, faculty, and community members.
Support is provided by The School of Arts and Sciences at Rutgers University New Brunswick, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Middlesex County Folklife Program, the New Jersey Folk Festival, Inc, and Media Services at Rutgers.
New Jersey Folk will enrich your perspective with fresh voices, and equip your mind with thought-provoking/arresting moments in time. We hope you enjoy this segment of our arts edition, where we speak to renowned artists within the New Jersey community and beyond about the significance of their practice to preserving cultural heritage across geographical, generational, and societal spaces.
The New Jersey Folk Podcast also hosts live events featuring artists and student / community producers. Take a look at our 2023 Podcast Launch event featuring artists Maria Vivar, Denise Hall, Cimarrones, with Community Producers Madeline Lora, Stephanie DeVito, and Student Producer Emma Young.
