Florida Folklife Program – A component of the Florida Department of State’s Division of Historical Resources, the Florida Folklife Program (FFP) documents and presents the folklife, folklore, and folk arts of the state. The FFP coordinates a wide range of activities and projects designed to increase the awareness of Floridians and visitors alike about our traditional culture.


Voices of Florida – Produced by the Florida Folklife Program, Voices of Florida presents eight half-hour radio portraits of Florida cultural and folk communities. More than 130 Floridians of all ages from the Everglades to the Panhandle share their stories, challenges, triumphs, and cultural expressions. Florida is one of the nation’s most culturally diverse states and Voices of Florida brings that diversity to you.
