Aiming at providing a platform to craftsmen and enhance inter-state cultural discourse, an exhibition of embroidery work by award winning artisans was inaugurated here today by Culture Minister Chandresh Kumari Katoch.
"India has huge untapped potential of craftsmen and artisans, and such platforms pave way for restoration of indigenous handicraft and enhance inter-state cultural discourse," Katoch said while inaugurating the exhibition on 'Indian embroideries Resurgence'.
She said it was overwhelming to see Indian handicrafts getting huge recognition from across the globe. The exhibition showcases revival of India's weaves and embroideries.
The minister also felicitated artisans for their exquisite work in embroidery.
The exhibition is open for public viewing from September 2 to 15 September at Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts.
