# Event Details - **Event Name**: Patachitra Pingla - the village of Patachitrakars - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 25 Dec, 2025 at 07:00 am – Thu, 25 Dec, 2025 at 04:00 pm - **Event Description**: Patachitra Pingla - the village of Patachitrakars Village Naya, Pingla, West Midnapore, West Bengal Thursday, December 25, 2025 7am to 4pm Patachitra is one of the traditional folk art of Bengal, carried on for centuries. These days this folk art is getting recognised and appreciated worldwide. Visitors come from all parts of the world to experience the paintings live. The painters who paint patachitras, are called Patuas. Normally for all such paintings natural colours made from various trees, leaves, flowers and clays are only used. But these days owing to the increase in cost of making natural colours and also owing to the usage of other surfaces for painting, chemical colours are also used. Another unique feature of these Patuas is that while showing the Scroll paintings (called patas) to guests, they sing songs, which are known as 'Pater Gaan'. These songs describe the paintings and are based on mythology or tribal rituals or even on various contemporary issues. TOUR ITINERARY: This is a day tour where you will be at the village to roam around the settlements of the Patuas. Check out their arts, their ways and means. You might be welcomed into a house where they will sing a song for you. You might experience some live paintings. The making of colours and the local brushes from the hair of goats (subject to the workshop being organised), listening to the songs of Patuas or the bauls and experiencing the village culture are all in the day's activity.
