A WHS will lose its uniqueness if the ICH disappears. Hence, it is important to determine how creativity may sustain the ICH. In-depth interviews, and participant and nonparticipant observations were conducted, and a 5As—actor, audience, affordance, artifact, and apprentice—cultural creativity interaction model was constructed. These elements of cultural creativity may serve as a guideline for different stakeholders in sustaining the status of a WHS.}, year = {2020}, journal = {Journal of Hospitality and Tourism Research}, volume = {44}, number = {3}, pages = {439-471}, month = {mar}, issn = {10963480 (ISSN)}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85075029970&doi=10.1177%2f1096348019886929&partnerID=40&md5=fc310573003b360a080d6720500606ad}, doi = {10.1177/1096348019886929}, note = {Publisher: SAGE Publications Inc.}, language = {English}, }
