It is a poetic manifestation of inner charm of the society through tangible forms and materials. Madhya Pradesh has a rich heritage of craft practices on various materials in different ways.Historically many of the crafts practiced in the state have been patronized and has reached to a state of economic stability. But there are still plenty folk crafts practiced in communities or guilds which have a scope but presently are not very stable. In this research work, the handicrafts and the handloom clusters in various agro-climatic zones of Madhya Pradesh are listed. A total of 53 numbers of clusters are listed with the help of secondary data collected from Govt Institutions and self -visits to 22 different clusters. ========================================================== Keywords:Craft cluster; artisans; crafts person; folk craft; individual craft, cultural and economic influences, agro-climatic zone. Introduction: Crafts The Oxford Encyclopaedia defines craft as 'an activity involving skill in making things by hand, something that one learns and does, something me- chanical'. According to Cambridge Advanced learner's Dictionary craft is de- fined as (a job or activity needing) skill and experience, especially in relation to making objects. Dr S. Settar, an art historian and Professor Emeritus, NIAS, considers craft as a practice that embarks on where art find its limiting end, 'When something is made in bulk it is no longer art but craft' (interview, 26 September 2011). DrChaluvaraju, Professor, Tribal Studies Department, Kannada University, (interview, 8 September 2011) echoes S?etsuYanagi =========================== * Assistant Professor, Department of Management, AISECT University, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India. ** Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture, School of Planning and Architecture, Neelbad Road, Bhauri, Bhopal. *** Assistant Professor, Fashion and Lifestyle Accessory Department, National Institute of Fashion Technology, NIFT Campus, Bhoj Open University Campus, Kolar Road, Bhopal-462016, Madhya Pradesh, India. 6 Research Journal of Arts, Management and Social Sciences, Vol. XVII, Eng.-I, Year IX, Sept. 2017 (1927) in that they both consider craft to be something that is made to be used in daily life. Dr. Chaluvaraju strongly feels that craft should be able to reflect the sociocultural background of the society and not just be an object for deco- ration. Similarly, Kamaladevi Chattopadhyay (1963), known for her contribu- tion in Indian freedom movement and a great visionary of Indian Craft, consid- ers that a craft product, especially in the Indian region, is something that sym- bolizes the inner desires of a community and is not an 'industry'. She partly echoes William Morris (1888), founder of the Arts and Crafts Movement, who felt workmanship had value only if it expressed the maker's individuality (Rajangam.K. 2017) Craft as a socio-economic practice has been thriving with human society ever since humans started practicing systematic agriculture that is from during the end of Palaeolithic age (Mellanby.K. et. al., 2017). It resulted in settlement of human societies and further expansion of crafts. The evolution and expansion of craft and craftsmanship in India can be witnessed from the Mauryan era (400 B.C. to 200 B.C.). During that time society began to witness expansion of crafts in all possible lifestyle and profes- sional requirements. Like weapons, armours and ship building for state, tex- tile looms, leather footwear, Jewellery, Terracotta storages, Ivory work, Shell work, stone work, Bamboo basketry, wood carving, furniture, etc.
