Nestled up in the heart of Jazz Fest lies the Louisiana Folklore Village, a market displaying handmade crafts consisting of everything from glittery high heels to traditional boat building. With intricacy and dedication each craft preserves the unique culture and deep-rooted traditions of Louisiana craftsmanship. In a time of technology and mass manufactured goods, these intricate artistries refresh us of the soul and tradition that is the skilled trade.
