Anna Chuda

One of the most recognized active folk artists of the Biskupizna micro-region. She is an astounding singer, dancer and storyteller. Since childhood she has taken over from older generations the great amount of knowledge about biskupian customs and several hundred traditional songs, which she gladly shares with others. She co-operates with local parishes on orations in biskupian dialect. She creates scripts for various events, runs workshops and advises on traditional crafts. She also assists in the rehearsals of childrens’ and youth folk ensembles in Krobia, enriching their singing repertoire and teaching dances. She and her students are regulars at the National Festival of Folk Bands and Singers in Kazimierz Dolny.

In 2011 she was awarded honorary title of merit from Krobia community for relentless work on maintaining and promoting biskupian heritage.
