This feature-length documentary film showcases the artists and tradition bearers from the 2021-2022 apprenticeship class\, followed by a discussion (and a little music) from participating artists\, including: Walter “Skip” Herman & K. T. Vandyke\, Emily Spencer & Lisa Ring \, Chris Testerman & Sophia Burnett & Karlie Keepfer\, Eddie Bond & Andrew Small\, and Mac Traynham & Ashlee Watkins. \nThis event is co-presented by the Birthplace of Country Music Museum and Mid Atlantic Arts’ Central Appalachia Living Traditions.

Following the film\, stay to hear discussion and music by the featured artists. \nVIRGINIA FOLKLIFE APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAM \nThe Virginia Folklife Apprenticeship Program has supported artists who are masters in traditions ranging from instrument repair in southwest Virginia to Mongolian mask-making in Northern Virginia to growing and grinding heirloom cornmeal on the Eastern Shore. By awarding teacher-student teams financial support and providing a platform to share their work\, the Virginia Folklife Program works to sustain the community traditions that entertain\, nourish\, inspire\, and define Virginians. The Virginia Folklife Program\, based at Virginia Humanities\, is the state center for the documentation\, presentation\, support\, and celebration of Virginia’s rich cultural heritage.
