The Alex Wilson Legacy Fund fosters folklore projects around Boulder and the Front Range of Colorado. It continues and expands the lifework of Alex “Tink” Wilson (1929-2012), an inspiring leader of folk dancing, folk song, and story in the Boulder area for decades. Since 2012, the Fund has helped to fund many community-related folklore projects through small grants.
