Ahmedabad – Rangoli Handicraft Producers Company Ltd., in collaboration with the Development Commissioner Handicrafts and the Jodhpur Art Gallery, Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation, is proud to announce the launch of Project Naari, a transformative initiative dedicated to empowering 20 exceptional women artisans. This special exhibition, coinciding with International Women’s Day, aims to showcase their remarkable talent and foster economic independence.

Project Naari will feature a stunning collection of handcrafted art, highlighting the rich tapestry of Indian craftsmanship.

This exhibition is a testament to the dedication, skill, and creative vision of these women artisans.

The project goes beyond simply showcasing art. It provides comprehensive mentorship, guiding artisans in translating their traditional skills into contemporary masterpieces.

We invite the public to join us in celebrating the extraordinary talent of these women and to support their livelihoods. By purchasing their creations, you are directly contributing to their economic empowerment and the preservation of India’s rich cultural heritage.

This initiative aligns with the vision of Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mission to promote “Vocal for Local” and empower women, fostering self-reliance and sustainable growth.

Project Naari seeks to elevate the perception of handicrafts, transforming them into coveted art objects and creating sustainable livelihoods. We are committed to celebrating cultural heritage and advancing women’s economic participation in the arts.
