Folk Art and culture are important to preserving the rich heritage and identity of communities around the world. They encapsulate the traditions, stories, and values passed down through generations, providing a tangible connection to the past.

 

Engaging with folk art and culture can foster a sense of belonging and pride, as well as promote understanding and appreciation of diverse customs and ways of life. Moreover, these cultural expressions often inspire contemporary artists and creators, bridging the gap between old and new, and ensuring that the spirit of tradition continues to thrive in modern times.

​

In honor of our culture, we have developed a week-long program filled with activities, worksheets, and videos! These are crafted to engage participants in the vibrant folk art that envelops them and influences their identity as residents of Florida.
