Accepted Answer

Attending performances by traditional artists, buying instruments or recordings directly from makers or performers when appropriate, and supporting projects that work to preserve and transmit traditional arts to younger generations all help. Some cultural centers and community projects combine tourism with arts preservation. Being a respectful, engaged audience and showing genuine interest in the traditions (rather than treating them as exotic entertainment) also supports the artists and communities keeping these practices alive. Some projects specifically work on revival and education — supporting those has longer-term impact.
