Help us celebrate the rich tapestry of community life in the Southern Finger Lakes and the Southern Tier by sharing stories of the people, places and traditions that make this region home for so many. We want to meet everyone from fly tyers to Christmas cookie bakers. Calling all Indian classical dancers, polka musicians, gospel singers, wood carvers, quilters, pysanky artists, come tell your stories! What are the places and events that bring your community together?
None of this would be possible without the thoughtful and generous participation of the tradition bearers featured herein. May their dedication and vision be guiding lights as we continue to shape this region together.
