What are Folklore Fellows?
The Folklore Fellows are a group of people who seek opportunities to identify the beliefs, customs and actions found in their personal stories that fuel a folkloric life. This group is an intimate group of present sculptors, strategists and seers of human development that have the capacity to influence culture in ways that cultivate humanity.
The Primary Objectives of the Folklore Fellowship are to:
- Gather around a leading modern-day folkloric hero.
- Cross-Pollinate with peers in shaping culture through projects, products and services.
- Reunite to experience regular practicums, sessions and workshops which hone and develop folklore.
- Execute a year-long collaboration among Folklore Fellows which culminates in a Folklore Fellow Hermitage a weekend-long experience in nature.
