APPRENTICESHIPS: Carrying Traditional Knowledge Forward

Many traditional craft artists feel duty bound to pass on what they know, the skills they have mastered, and the lineage and lessons from whom they’ve learned. This year’s Folk Craft area focuses on the role apprenticeships are playing in the continuing vitality of traditions from Chinese papercutting, western bootmaking, hand-lettered signs and decorative painting, Dominican carnival traditions, wooden ship’s steering wheels, and more.
