Folk art

Folk art is art that is made by regular people like you and me, usually in small communities or groups. It can include paintings, sculpture, and even songs, stories, and dance! It usually focuses on the culture of the people who make it and the times in which they live. Folk art is often colorful and bright, filled with stories and histories of a place, or a family. It is a way for people to express their experiences, share their traditions, and show their creativity.
