Goa stands on its own two feet when it comes to art and craft and it is a pilgrimage spot for the devotees of sun, sand and mouthwatering seafood! So amalgamating all these elements, Goa is presently hosting the 28th edition of Hunar Haat, which is an effort to bring forward the rich traditions and artistries of India at one platform. Promoting the idea of #VocalforLocal, Hunar Haat is one such event that you cannot afford to miss!

The flagship event of the Union Ministry of Minority Affairs, Hunar Haat is a masterly initiative at making India self-reliant under the banner of Aatmanirbhar Bharat. Hunar Haat is an attempt at bringing forth its profound artisans from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and giving them a stage that would help them monetize their skills in a better way!
Bringing together the flavours from around the country, this extraordinary event has already started at the Kala Academy in Panaji, Goa and will stay till April 4, 2021. The event starts every day from 10:30 AM to 10 PM and will not charge you anything if you wish to enter and stroll through the haat.
