We selected in this post several ideas and suggestions for your Folklore Panel or Mural in EVA or FELT with templates available for printing.
What is folklore? The word folklore is of English origin. The term “folk” in English means people, while “lore” means culture.
We can define folklore as a set of myths and legends that people pass on from generation to generation. Many are born from the pure imagination of people, especially those living in the interior regions of Brazil. Folklore can be divided into legends and myths. Many of them gave rise to popular festivals, which take place in the four corners of the country.

The saci-pererê is represented by a black boy who has only one leg. Always with his pipe and a red cap that gives him magical powers. Lives up to mischief and has a lot of fun with it. She loves to scare horses, burn food and wake people up with laughter.
Like the boitatá, the curupira is also a protector of forests and wild animals. Represented by a dwarf with long hair and feet turned backwards. Chases and kills all who disrespect nature.
This myth appears in various regions of the world. The myth says that a man was attacked by a wolf on a full moon night and did not die, but he developed the ability to transform into a wolf on a full moon night.
