Today is the last day to attend The Tale of North East, an exhibition that gives you a glimpse of the tribes, art and culture of the picturesque region. To add a touch of earthiness to your home decor and wardrobe, you can pick up handicrafts and garments from Meghalaya, Assam, Sikkim, Nagaland and Manipur. On offer are hand-crafted artefacts by water reed weavers from Manipur, who make baskets, bags and boxes from a grass-like plant, which is endemic to the state and is considered a gift from God by the locals. You can also witness a demonstration of the dying art of black pottery made by the Thankhul Naga tribes.
