Announcements

  • The Board of the Folklore Society of Greater Washington stands in solidarity with all who are striving to create a more racially just world.
  • How FSGW is responding to COVID-19 (coronavirus) (follow this link for full details)
    Summary: Our in-person events were cancelled until emergency orders restricting large gatherings were rescinded. Since that has recently happened, in July 2021 we set an initial policy for resuming in-person events. This policy will evolve as we learn more. In-person event planning has begun, and events will gradually roll out starting in August.
  • The July 2021 and August 2021 newsletters are available online.
  • If you have lost your FSGW website password or you're a member (or a non-member who attends any of our events) and don't yet have a password, you can reset your password.
