The Sądecczyzna Region and the vicinity of Gorlice are regions known for cultivating local traditions. To this day, many enthusiasts and local community workers still sustain and nourish the patterns of local folk art, passing its tradition on to younger generations. Pogórzanie, Lachy Sądeckie, the highlanders of Beskid Sądecki, black highlanders, finally Lemkos – we can find differences in patterns, costumes, crafts, and – of course – traditional construction everywhere. Many folk artists still work in numerous localities. Among them, we can find artists whose works are known and appreciated both in the country and outside the territory of Poland. Paszyn, in which many sculptors still work, is a well-known centre of folk carving. However, many of their works can be admired at the local Museum of Folk Carving. Here, chisels are used to carve in wood, usually lime. Many other regional carvers were also bound up with Paszyn for a certain period of their artistic activity.
