About This Experience

Craft a colourful kathputli string puppet, paint its face, and dress it while hearing the folk tales puppeteers carried across Rajasthan's courts and villages.

Udaipur remains a lively stage for this storytelling craft; your workshop links hand skills to the characters and humour that still animate Mewar evenings at haveli shows and village performances.

Excellent rainy-day or family activity—creative, seated, and rich in cultural colour without needing prior craft experience.
