Kalptaru is an initiative of Kamdhenu Foundation working for the support and development of Indian arts and crafts. It aims at bringing the arts from grassroots of India to the mainstream. It promotes weavers, painters and other artists to continue and grow the traditional arts and crafts. These arts include Madhubani painting, jardosi work, hand embroidery, silk weaving and many others. Kalptaru reaches right down to the villages, making direct contact with the artists. Kalptaru has been constantly working with artists in villages. Artists are encouraged to create and adapt their art according to the need of the markets. Kalptaru bridges the gap between the artists and the real connoisseurs of their art. Artists are benefited not only in financial means, as their art finds a proper outlet, but are enormously encouraged and thrilled by the appreciation they get. Kalptaru adopted their work and also trained them to create new designs and utility products that will be of high demand in the market under the guidance of experts. Kalptaru holds regular exhibitions in various places, where these arts get a good market.
