Amidst lush landscaped gardens, a unique collection of skillfully crafted day to day objects that range from combs, lamps, toys and kitchen ware are displayed at the Sanskriti Museum of Everyday Art. The heritage of traditional India is beautifully showcased by the spectacular talents of craftsmen who transform daily trivial everyday life into magnificent works of art.
The Museum of Everyday Art is one of the three branches of the Sanskriti Kendra Museum. Housed in the Sanskriti Kendra complex itself the other two museums that are located by its side are the Museum of Indian Terra Cotta and the Textile Museum. The Everyday Art Museum was inaugurated in 1984 with the purpose of creating an environment to depict the Indian lifestyle in order to preserve the heritage of this country. The museum not only exhibits some of the finest talents in craftsmanship but also displays a unique conceptual innovation in both design and functionality. As Indians have culture permeated in every aspect of their lives, a simple everyday chore is connected with the customs, beliefs and practices of rural and urban India and is displayed as art in this unique museum. Covering objects that are used in every stage of life beginning with a child and ending with the spiritual finale of life, this museum makes a fantastic display of the exuberant imagination and aesthetic creativity of craftspeople from all over the Indian nation.
The Museum of Indian Terra Cotta is another fascinating spot in the complex. With over 1500 objects of terra cotta art, figurines and sculptures, Tribal India is displayed in traditional craftsmanship and style.
