Wherever we go, we are part of a crowd that houses thousands of craftsmen, women and artists. Yet we do not know them, because they do not have a platform which bring their work of art to the fore. There are approximately 47 lakh artisans in India engaged with craft production for their livelihood. The global crafts market presents a golden opportunity for Indian craftsmen. Craft represents unique culture of different communities and speaks volumes about the rich and diverse heritage of India. It is a key economic factor as well as a crucial cultural indicator.
