Dolls Exhibition September 11, 2008

The dolls exhibition at Khadi Gramodyog Bhavan on Anna Salai puts to rest all fears that the culture of story-telling is dying. On sale are a range of dolls and each tells a story. The exhibition is the result of hard work of thousands of artisans across the State. Some of them mould exquisite lifelike figures from Papier Mache while others do so in cloth. This year the cloth dolls are the new addition to the existing range. The most expensive doll is that of Kanaka Durga. It costs Rs.29000. The lowest priced item is the miniature biscuit. There are figurines of national and spiritual leaders.For details contact 28534312.
