It is necessary to combine this work with the current work of “art township construction” to make the excavation and protection of She traditional culture more effective; It is necessary to combine the activation of the traditional folk culture of the She nationality with the work of inheritance and dissemination, so that the cultural value and humanistic connotation of the She nationality can be understood and appreciated by more people, and serve the overall revitalization and common prosperity of ethnic villages.
