Description: City Lore’s mission is to foster New York City – and America’s – living cultural heritage through education and public programs. They document, present, and advocate for New York City’s grassroots cultures to ensure their living legacy in stories and histories, places and traditions. They work in four cultural domains: urban folklore and history; preservation; arts education; and grassroots poetry traditions. In each of these realms, they see ourselves as furthering cultural equity and modeling a better world with projects as dynamic and diverse as New York City itself.
