Making Chau Masks

A workshop by Chau Mask Artisans Bhim Sutradhar & Shanti Sutradhar
Gyaan Adab in association with Heart For Art offers you the opportunity to create your own Chau masks and carry them home with you!
The master artisans will explain the history of Chau mask making and its use. They will engage participants in the actual creation and painting of the masks and will give finishing touches to the magnificent work that they have created. The participants will take home two masks – one which they have made and painted and the other created by the artisan but painted by them.
