A Walk Through Threads of India's Traditions!
Join us for a curated walk through the very rich exhibits of the Textile Galleries at the Crafts Museum this Sunday. Indian Textiles are not merely aesthetic - woven in their warp and weft are stories of communities of history and culture of migration and politics. And as you peel each layer their context and origin tell you so much more than their heritage.
From the Phulkari in Punjab to the golden threads of Benarasi brocades to the ephemeral Muslin - discover hidden stories in their folds.
Led by a passionate storyteller a handloom evangelist and a senior lawyer by profession Shwetasree will walk you through the stories of craftsmanship and symbolism behind some of the most distinctive textile exhibits on display.
Whether you're a textile enthusiast history lover or simply curious this is a wonderful opportunity to deepen your appreciation for India's handloom legacy and the museum's serene setting adds to the charm — a perfect blend for insightful learning….
Limited spots available so book now.
