One compact disc. The two award winners for 2003 were hymn liner Troy Demps (appearing with apprentices Frank Spalding and Eddie Banks) and hula dancer Kauii-healani Mahikoa Brandt. State folklorist Tina Bucuvalis announced the awards. Based on recommendations from the Florida Folklife Council, the Secretary of State confers Florida Folk Heritage Awards annually. The awards are given to outstanding folk artists and folk culture advocates who have made long-standing contributions to the folk cultural resources of the state. Established in 1985, the program parallels the National Heritage Fellowships.
