My daughter, Hannah Davis, is a folklore student at IU and an intern with Traditional Arts Indiana (an organization near and dear to my heart). This summer she is serving as an intern for the Hungarian Heritage Project, a part of the Smithsonian Folklife Festival.
I’ve been following the festival’s website and found and interesting article. It wasn’t until the second read that I noticed that Hannah was one of the writers! I’m kind of beaming with folky pride this morning.
Read her article here.
Geoff- I would really love it if you could leave some of your stuff at my shop during the Lapel festival. I got a call today from the Smithsonian today as a result of Hannah passing my name on to them about the guys from Hungary who are doing a wattle fence. Contact me!!ga love you man!
Geoff – call me.
