From NEW YORK FOLKLORE (Vol. 13, Nos. 3-4):
"In bringing such programs [folk arts-in-education] to the schools we are showing younger people that skill, talent and creativity are not the exclusive preserve of museums, concert halls or even art classes but can thrive and flourish on an everyday level as well."—Kathleen Mundell ("The Cultural Heritage Project: Presenting Traditional Arts in a Suburban Setting")
