our 52nd year of celebration coincides with UNESCO recognition and 75th independence anniversary of the country. the first mention of this festival is found in 14th century manuscripts. it was sponsored by royalty and nobility since the 16th century. growing popular in the provinces of bengal, odisha and assam during british rule, durga puja became an instrument of national reformation. it morphed with time into a mass celebration, cutting across all divisions. it became an inseparable part of our culture and heritage.
this year we celebrate this people’s puja through people’s Art. folk traditions are revived by indigenous artists as well as Art college students, with support from the adjacent gurusaday museum. we celebrate our folk assets and endeavour to promote them through the country and to the world.
