The Lloyd Shaw Foundation preserves and shares a diverse range of dance and music traditions with an inter-generational audience.  We develop leadership in traditional dance and music forms, and sponsor events and scholarships to ensure their continuity.  Through our archives housed at the University of Denver, and at our Dance Center in Albuquerque, NM, we retain important historical records that document the past and enable us to preserve the future of traditional American folk dance.
