The International Festival of Folk Art is a celebration of traditional and contemporary folk art from around the world. This event brings together artisans, musicians, dancers, and other performers to showcase the unique and vibrant cultures of different countries. Attendees can enjoy a variety of performances, workshops, and exhibitions
Folk art covers all forms of visual art made in the context of folk culture. Definitions vary, but generally the objects have practical utility of some kind, rather than being exclusively decorative. The makers of folk art are typically trained within a popular tradition, rather than in the fine art tradition of the culture. There is often overlap, or contested ground with "naive art." "Folk art" is not used in regard to traditional societies where ethnographic art continue to be made.
