One proof sheet with 21 black and white images (plus negatives, and six duplicate prints) Images of students participating in jump-rope and hand-clapping games at South Hamilton Elementary school. (These activities were recorded, and can be found in S 1576, box 40, tapes 14 & 15.) Also contains images of Edward Murphy (with teacher Jacqueline Mathis) discussing farm tools and his fiddle; and Ossie Maxwell and others from the Jennings Senior Citizens Center talking with students. The Folk Arts in Schools Project in Columbia and Hamilton County was a joint venture between the county school systems and the Florida Folklife Program. The project consisted of field research to identify local traditions and folk artists, and in-school programs conducted by a folklorist and traditionalist, which included visits by local folk artists.
