Vision And Mission

National Crafts Museum & Hastkala Academy

Vision And Mission

The Vision of National Crafts Museum was to build a collection of crafts and textiles specimens that would provide storehouse for the knowledge of our disappearing traditions  and also their preservation, revival, reproduction, development.  

The mission was to take this core collection  to the public, students, researchers as well as craftsmen, weavers, performers  at different levels. The disintegration of handicrafts and handlooms in their traditional set up required finding new platforms for marketing the skills as well. They are all now in close and integral relationship with the museum.
