Artisans at Work

Master craftsmen and artisans, specializing in Pakistan's folk and traditional crafts recreates their crafts and handloom products in much the same way as they do in their own settings and delight the visitors with their marvellous skills.

An exhibition of Folk Arts & Crafts, held in the spacious halls of the Lok Virsa Museum, is another significant aspect of the festival. Some 1,000 exhibits, representing a rich treasure of the craft heritage of Pakistan, offer encyclopaedia information on craft techniques, raw material, predominant colours and the skills involved. In their splendour, variety and exquisite workmanship, these exhibits are really a feast for the eyes.
