About The Event
Kumbharwada Diwali Special Private Heritage Walk & Pottery Experience
Discover the cultural charm of Kumbharwada, Mumbai's traditional potters' village, through an exclusive private experience curated around the art, heritage and craftsmanship of the Kumbhar community.
Step away from the usual Diwali celebrations and explore the vibrant lanes of this centuries-old pottery neighbourhood. Accompanied by a dedicated guide, uncover the stories behind its age-old traditions, meet local artisans and gain an intimate insight into a community that has kept Mumbai's pottery heritage alive for generations.
The experience takes you into a traditional potter's home, offering a closer look at the art of pottery making on a traditional wheel. Go beyond simply observing and immerse yourself in the craft with a hands-on diya-making experience, followed by a creative diya painting session where you can personalise your own creation and take it home.
Thoughtfully curated for those who appreciate culture, craftsmanship and meaningful local experiences, this private journey offers a rare opportunity to connect with Mumbai's living heritage at your own pace.
