About TIFD

TIFD (Texas International Folk Dancers) is a non-profit educational organization which supports folk dancing and related folk arts in Texas and surrounding states. Since the 1950s, TIFD has run its annual folk dance camp over Thanksgiving weekend, one of the longest-running and best-beloved folk dance camps in the U.S. TIFD supports local groups in Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and New Mexico with a small-grant program intended to help promote special events related to folk music and folk dance. Over the years, TIFD has helped to fund numerous workshops and concerts through this program.
