Young Folk

Young Folk is a group of supporters for the American Folk Art Museum.

Young Folk is the official young supporters group (ages 21 to 39) of the American Folk Art Museum. Through dynamic social-educational programs, like intimate private-collection and artist-studio visits, as well as creative, blow-out parties and engaging social media, Young Folk provides a community for exploration of traditional and contemporary folk, self-taught, and outsider art. Inspired by the diversity, craftsmanship, and originality of these art forms, Young Folk is much more than a “fresh take on folk art.” It is redefining the way in which twenty-and-thirty-somethings engage with art and museums through its low membership free and out-of-the-box programming.
