    Cultural Treasure
    by Chris Slattery

    Forget the Oscars, Emmys and Grammys. Awards season is upon us in the Washington, D.C. area, and that means the NEA National Heritage Fellowship.

    Moved by Nature
    by Lisa Cline

    The relationship between nature and dance is recognized in our language—rain “dances” on a roof; trees and leaves “twist and turn” in the wind.

    by Peggy Vaughn

    by Gina Gallucci-White

    "I think (the ceremony) is a chance to recognize a sort of art that is sometimes under-recognized," said Chad Buterbaugh, Maryland Traditions’ co-director. "One of the ways folklore is sometimes framed in folklife is that it is the stuff that is happening in our backyard that seems so normal to us and seems so everyday that it is sometimes difficult View more

    Circus Joy
    by Lisa Cline
