Since 1989, the North Carolina Heritage Award has honored our state’s most eminent traditional artists and practitioners. Recipients of the Heritage Award range from internationally acclaimed musicians to folks who quietly practice their art in family and community settings. Awardees receive a financial award and are honored in a public ceremony in downtown Raleigh that draws enthusiastic audiences. Several North Carolinians have gone on to receive the National Heritage Fellowship Awards, presented by the National Endowment for the Arts. These awards deepen our awareness of North Carolina’s diverse cultural traditions, and their importance to our state’s past, present, and future.
