MAP’s Annual Arts Festival

November 30 & December 1

Step into a world where art shapes life, and life inspires art. Join us for a weekend that celebrates art, culture, and community.

Explore the Magic of Our Shared Heritage

This celebration invites you to dive into MAP’s rich and diverse collection, filled with treasures like timeless sculptures, beautiful textiles, pop culture memorabilia, and iconic photographs. These aren’t just museum pieces — they are a part of a collective cultural heritage that we all share.

Be Part of the Art

This year’s festival is packed with exciting new exhibitions, film screenings, hands-on workshops, live performances, and so much more. It’s not just a festival — it’s an immersive cultural adventure where art, history, and creativity come together to spark inspiration. Whether you are a seasoned art lover or just curious to explore something new, there’s no better place to experience the power of art than at Namma MAP.

Come join us for Art is Life — where creativity blossoms, stories unfold, and art becomes a part of you!
