MAATI – The Crafts School will Organise A Two-Day Showcase From June 5-6 In Bengaluru

Dates: 5–6 June 2026

Venue: Flat Roof Building, SABHA, Bengaluru

Some art forms don’t belong in museums. They belong in homes, in daily conversations, and in the hands of people who appreciate the story behind the object.

MAATI – The Crafts School, an initiative by Kadam India supported by the Tata Trusts, is bringing an immersive two-day showcase to Bengaluru. The exhibition celebrates the living traditions of hand-painted Madhubani art alongside contemporary Bihar craftsmanship. This curated exhibit is designed for textile connoisseurs, art and culture tastemakers, conscious textile retailers, architects, interior designers, collectors, and anyone drawn to authentic legacy artistry.

The heart of the showcase is four women artisans traveling from MAATI’s clusters in Madhubani and Darbhanga. This is a rare opportunity to meet the makers and engage directly with their creative processes and explore handcrafted textile collections that bridge generations of visual memory with contemporary living.

Beyond design, the exhibition carries a real-world urgency. MAATI works in regions of Bihar where recurring climate and environmental challenges threaten traditional ways of life year after year. By creating direct market access and nurturing independent creative enterprises, the initiative supports artisan communities in building long-term, climate-resilient livelihoods.

We invite you to experience the work, meet the artisans, and join the conversation around handmade futures.
