Museum of Folk and Tribal Art is one of those few places where you can explore and learn more about such arts. Founded by multi-talented historian, sculptor and painter K.C. Aryan, this museum is truly an amazing place that should be visited by all. 

From masks of South India and Himachal Pradesh, paintings from Rajasthan, Punjab and Bihar to stone carvings from Kangra and Uttar Pradesh, this museum has a number of collections. Apart from all these, you will also see wooden carvings, earthen wares and terracotta figures on display here. The folk and tribal jewelleries are other collections for which the museum is famous.
