Folkemusikksenteret I Buskerud (The Buskerud Centre for Traditional Music) is a resource center for Norwegian traditional music and dance, responsible for the conservation and dissemination of music and dance in the Buskerud region.

Folkemusikksenteret is located in a large three-story log building at the Sigdal Museum in Prestfoss, Viken. The building houses an extensive archive of Norwegian folk music, a recording studio, a concert hall, rehearsal rooms and several rooms for accommodation, meetings, and conferences.

The centre engages in an extensive range of activities, including film and audio recording, concerts, and courses for children, youth, and adults. Some examples include Talentskolen, a program for young folk music performers aged 14-22, and a workshop on traditional music for primary and secondary school students. It also functions as a coordinator for local performers and workshop leaders.
