Kala Kumbh: An Exhibition Of Uttar Pradesh’s Art & Culture

Kala Kumbh is a remarkable exhibition showcasing the art, culture, and archaeology of Uttar Pradesh, along with records of historic Kumbh events.

Spanning approximately 5 acres within the fairgrounds, Kala Kumbh features an exhibition gallery and a stage for cultural performances.

The gallery displays photographs, replicas, and exhibits tracing the journey of Bhatkhande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya, monuments of Uttar Pradesh, protected heritage sites, manuscripts, and artefacts.

Archaeological and archival evidence brings the state’s cultural heritage to life, featuring comprehensive documentation, images, and historical references to Kumbh events.

A key highlight of Kala Kumbh is the section dedicated to the historical perspective of Maha Kumbh.

This eighth segment of the exhibition delves into administrative insights from all Kumbh events held in Prayagraj between 1866 and 1954, presented through government letters, records, and official documents.

This section includes reports, correspondences, administrative orders, and other records, offering a comprehensive view of Kumbh over the last 150 years.

Authentic archival material showcases the systemic measures, infrastructural developments, and economic strategies undertaken during each Kumbh, making it a treasure trove of historical documentation.
