The lives of rural communities in Rajasthan; their art, food, faith, festivals, fairs and folklore are inextricably tied to the crop patterns and seasons. The traditional artisans’ communities of barbers, tailors, ironsmiths and cobblers pass their skills and knowledge down the generations orally and informally. The museum does not display objects that are prohibitively expensive or rare antiques and portrays the unbroken and living traditions of these communities.
