India, Mumbai, Artisans Gallery
Artisans Gallery celebrates India’s handmade heritage not just as a legacy, but as its most valuable resource. They believe in the potential of craft to change lives through creative livelihoods, in a world where the future is handmade.
Their ever-changing rota of curated exhibitions and events showcase work which dissolves narrow definitions of art, craft or design.
They recognize cultural objects in the fullest context of their unique local and contemporary identity. These are richly experienced through accompanying music, dance, theatre, cuisine, workshops, and lectures in an intimate and inclusive setting.
They launch new talent and impact the lives of more than 10,000 artisans, designers and social entrepreneurs. Their partner artisans earn a major share of the proceeds within a marketplace based on lasting value for India’s living heritage.
Their goal is to revitalise India’s extraordinary array of artisanal craftsmanship, and to credit artisans as owners of the creative process.
