The folklore department at the Carinthian Provincial Museum was long abandoned, but now Ingeborg Schmid from Tyrol has taken over the extensive collection and wants to encourage people to get involved.

A winning smile and curious eyes: this woman is ready for something new! And she is taking on this challenge in Carinthia: Ingeborg Schmid is the new head of the Folklore Department at the Carinthia Museum - a job that was not filled for a whole three years after Heimo Schinnerl retired. So there is plenty of work waiting for the Tyrolean in Carinthia.
