India’s largest handicraft’s fair, an annual event displays the workmanship of the artisans of West Bengal, the neglected frontrunners of traditional art of the state.
Around 3000 participants from almost every districts of West Bengal display their arts and crafts of jute, cane furnitures and baskets, handloom products, Totem poles made of bamboo shoots, 'Chhau' masks, wood carvings, wooden, dokra, jute and clay dolls, Madhubani and other traditional hand paintings, sawdust art, terracotta, wooden, sea shell and coconut shell artifacts and other home decors. Beside carpets, handbags and wall hangings, Kantha stitch and Batik from Bolpur, Baluchari from Bisnupur, Tant from Shantipur, Phoolia and Dhoniakhali, Silk from Murshidabad, Woolens of Darjeeling are also very popular.
The traditional origins based on culture and mythology, the workmanships, the richness of ideas, the brilliant combination of pure simplicity and glamour bring an amazing experience to truly understand their talent.
The Expo spreads over an area of 82,000 sq ft and has incurred an estimated total sales of Rs.1500.00 lakh (£1.5 million pound). It is the initiative of the Department of Micro and Small Scale Enterprises and Textiles, Government of West Bengal, organized every year with the aim to provide the artisans an exposure to the urban markets, know their taste and interact with the buyers or exporters directly, so that they can get orders for their products all throughout the year.

It's been said that the Pasadena Freeway (with similar 5 feet onramps as seen in this picture) was the first freeway, but I'm wondering if the original Bay Bridge was actually the first freeway. Like others, I've driven across this bridge so many times. Sometimes the success of getting from Point A to Point B was eventual, though. One of the most memorable times was during the El Nino of '83 when the rain was coming down in sideways sheets, the wind was gusting at 90mph. If there was an accident, you could be stuck for one or two hours as there is no alternate route once you are on the bridge. I'm not sure how the new Bay Bridge is going to help with those kinds of challenges, but at least it's supposed to be more earthquake safe even though they are making it happen with a temporary fix. I hope it works until the permanent one is ready. It's amazing how much the bolts that hold it together matter.
