Pop-Up Exhibit Guidelines
Have fun during our pop ups! Our virtual content may be partly imaginative based. It is not possible to create all historically significant items as it was in the period but we will do our best to simulate historical fashions.
Share your passion for sarees and culture! Volunteer with the International Museum of the Saree and help us bring this unique art form to the world.

Shipping, Returns, and Refunds
We have a 30 day return policy when our site is complete with technical upgrades. However our entertainment and referral services are active if you wish to hire any of our celebrated and talented volunteers for your events.

Terms of Service and Disclaimers
We are a pop up and digital experience funded by private sponsors. We apply responsible sourcing and processes in most of our exhibits and try not to be wasteful. Our tours will have the necessary disclaimers at the time they are offered.
