Venue: Janapada Loka • Clay Art Unit • Channapatna Toy Craft Unit • Valley Vibes Resort
Programme Type: Full-Day Cultural & Creative Field Investigation
Age Group: 15–16 years
This full-day investigation reframes the cultural visit as an analytical study of how artistic traditions express identity, preserve heritage and adapt within modern economic systems. Students examine folk traditions, clay craftsmanship and Channapatna toy production as case studies of cultural continuity and transformation.
The visit is structured to develop analytical interpretation, evaluation of cultural significance and understanding of how art functions within social and economic contexts. Students move beyond appreciation to examine symbolism, production processes, sustainability of traditional crafts and the pressures of modernisation.
The academic focus is on:
• Cultural identity and expression
• Continuity and change
• Economic sustainability of traditional crafts
• Interpretation of artefacts as evidence
• Structured evaluative judgement
Students are expected to analyse artistic form, explain meaning, evaluate preservation efforts and construct developed written responses.
Students will:
• Analyse how visual elements communicate cultural identity
• Interpret symbolism within artefacts and craft traditions
• Explain how traditional crafts adapt to modern economic pressures
• Evaluate the importance of preserving cultural heritage
• Construct structured analytical and evaluative responses
By the end of the programme, students will be able to:
• Identify symbolic features within observed artefacts
• Explain how colour, material and form convey meaning
• Analyse economic and social challenges faced by artisans
• Evaluate the sustainability of traditional crafts
• Produce a balanced written judgement supported by evidence
