LTFAI Video Lectures

In 1981, Antanas Tamšaitis produced a series of 6 video lectures, “Lietuviu liaudies menas” (Lithuanian Folk Art), for the Lithuanian Education Institute, with funding assistance from the U.S. Department of Education, Ethnic Heritage Studies Program, and the Lithuanian Foundation.  

This lecture series in Lithuanian is academic in nature and discusses characteristics of specific folk art forms.  Each lecture is approximately 30 minutes in length.
