                    <text>Lowell Folklife Collection – Southeast Asian Subject Guide
The Lowell Folklife Project was conducted in 1987-1988 as a cooperative project of the American Folklife Center and the
Lowell Historic Preservation Commission, with support from the Massachusetts Council on the Arts and Humanities, to
document contemporary ethnic neighborhoods, occupations, and community life related to the history of industrialization in
Lowell, Massachusetts.
One of the documented communities was the Southeast Asian community. This subject guide will link to the individual
relevant items.
