Directory Update

We are constantly updating the Regional Folk Arts Directory. It would help considerably if those people, organisations, performers etc. who are listed in the directory could check their entries and if it's more than a year old please drop an email to Jim Hancock to confirm that it's up to date or to make any changes.
