Abstract

Social arts are the arts in which people create the art of performing on their own and perform it in different contexts. The sub-arts of this society have a natural tendency to be easily attended to and performed by anyone. It is also possible to know where such social arts are created by the people of the community and under what circumstances and in what conditions they are performed. The social arts created by the people and performed by the people are unique. By developing these arts, social harmony can be created among the people. All the social arts are performed in such a way as to be called performance arts. People will dance, sing, or dance and songs will be performed together, or dance and song will be accompanied by dialogue. As far as the folk performing arts performed in rural areas are concerned, the games are many, and the context in which they are performed is different, yet they act as their general components. Social arts are of great help in understanding folk culture, identifying its peculiarities, and understanding the cultural arrangements that manifest in cultural processes.
