KERALA ARTS & CRAFTS VILLAGE, KOVALAM 

Garden of traditional art and craft at Kovalam, the hot spot in the world tourism map – that is Kerala Arts & Crafts Village. A centre for art, culture and entertainment, it is conceived and implemented with multiple objectives ranging from resuscitation and nurturing of obsolescing handicraft skills and indigenous technologies, diversification of products, assurance of a decent life for the craftsmen by expanding the market and enhancing the price, earning of foreign currency through tourism marketing, to the improvement of the livelihood of the natives implementing the Responsible Tourism Policy. The project aims at transforming the venue from one of mere exhibition, sale and entertainment to an international centre of attraction by developing it to a haven of cultural happenings vibrant with art and culture festivals and spectacles for domestic and foreign tourists and the native public, and then to an academic destination of training and creative development of traditional arts and crafts and cultural exchange programme.

At the citadel of Kerala’s rich Art and Crafts traditions, we believe that there are no endings, there are only beginnings. We are thrilled to announce a series of enthralling performances that will feature #avial #jobkurian #souparnikarajagopal #kelvikkuri & #SreejithTheBeard to bid adieu to an eventful 2021 and welcome a glorious 2022.
