It is a site of visual arts and Bengali theatre, situated near Victoria Memorial.  It is established in 1933.  It's permanent galleries include medieval Bengali and Indian miniature paintings, textiles and excellent specimens of old hand-woven Daccai and Baluchari saris. A Jamini Roy collection and Desmond Doig's pen and ink sketches of Calcutta's nostalgic landmark, are also on view. Local theatre and dance programs are performed in a hall, which has a stage. The Rabindra gallery contains paintings and manuscripts of the great man of letters. Its galleries are open daily from 3 PM to 8 PM (except the Rabindra Gallery - 12PM to 6 PM daily, closed on Mondays).
