New, normal experiences
Coming in: January. February

While awaiting directives from the state government regarding their opening, Chhatrapati Shivaji Vastu Sangrahalaya (CSMVS) is organising two physical exhibitions in January and February, which will be available for viewing once they are given a go-ahead. The first is a children's exhibition titled Entwined: Humans and Animals at the Children's Museum. Curated by the CSMVS team, it will showcase objects from their collection that depict animals. The second exhibition is centred on Tanjore paintings that were gifted to the museum by Kuldip Singh, the eminent architect and collector who passed away in November 2020. Singh had donated over 300 pieces, and thus the show will be accommodated in the Coomaraswamy Hall, under the ConservArte-a Citi-CSMVS Art Conservation Project, as the objects had to be restored at the museum. In addition, visitors will also be able to visit the renewed money and jewellery gallery that had opened in February but had to shut its door due to the lockdown.
