About Museum of Folk and Tribal Art

The Museum of Folk and Tribal Art is an exceptional establishment located in the burgeoning city of Gurugram in Haryana, India. Founded by Mr. K.C. Aryan, a well-known art historian, in 1984, this museum is dedicated to preserving the vibrant folk and tribal art of India. Nestled in the urban landscape, it provides a stark contrast with its collection that includes paintings, metal crafts, wood carvings, and terracotta from various tribal regions of the country. The museum houses over 20,000 items, offering a panoramic view of India's rich cultural heritage. It serves not only as a repository of art but also as an educational institution providing insights into the varied art forms that are still practiced in rural India. The museum’s rustic charm and the aesthetic display of artifacts create an immersive experience for visitors who are eager to learn about the country's indigenous cultures. The collection shines a spotlight on the simplicity and beauty of rural life through items that are often used in daily life, rituals, and festivities by the tribal populations. It stands as a testament to the diverse and dynamic tradition of folk and tribal art in India.

I was extremely disappointed..We went there from far place and we were not even allowed to enter. I can understand that the museum is owned by a private house, but even the slightest hospitability was not shown to the visitors.

Art Is A Time Capsule Of Culture!
On Saturday 21st July 2018, I decided to spend the day with myself and returned with this amazing experience full of knowledge as well as creativity from a hidden treasure, known as 'MUSEUM OF FOLK & TRIBAL ART' in one of the most commercialized plus populated cities of India, Gurgaon in Haryana. This hub of art and artefacts mostly belong to Himachal Pradesh, Bastar, Madhya Pradesh, Parts of South India is a genius attempt and hardwork by late Mr. K.C Aryan who was a painter, sculptor and art historian. The museum is now being maintained by his children B.N Aryan and Subhasini Aryan, who are both great historians & connoisseurs of folk as well as indigenous art forms. I request Anyone who lives in Delhi NCR or is visiting must see this culturally rich place. It's an irony that something like this exists amidst the crowd of Gurgaon and is almost unknown to it's inhabitants.
