Thread Name: Folk Activism!
Subject: RE: Folk Activism!
Thanks for your last post Sian, after having looked at your magazine, it all looks most inspiring. Much from the Welsh example that a similar English body could draw from. Also your reference to not wanting to follow some faults in Irish attempts at promotion shows where an English body could also learn.

So initially, as John A says, it would seem that a body of nominated figures from both regional and national organisations already active in promoting the cause of English TradArts need to form a body reprensenting them all, and thus English TradArts as a whole.

I wonder if any discussions of that nature have ever taken place between different English folk arts organisations?
