Shankar Memorial National Cartoon Museum & Art Gallery

We never heard of this place. Stopped in front of this art gallery unexpectedly and we are glad that we did. It’s a must visit place for people who love sculptures and cartoons. Especially for fans of Cartoonist Shankar’s work. Only INR10 for entry. Not crowded at all. Very well maintained.

A wonderful art gallery, unique in its own way. It has the right combination of paintings, sculpture and cartoons. It is a must visit. It is surprisingly not crowded.

A nice quiet museum, well constructed and airy, accessible from highway. Let everyone see the various sculptures & paintings and introspect. Entrance fee is only Rs 10/- per head.
Cartoonist Shankar's workdesk & chair, and his easy chair also exhibited, along with some of his works..

Its a pefect place to know more about great talented cartoonist Shankar. Above all the arrangements and pictures showcased there was exciting..

Ticket charge is INR 5 for adults and INR 2 for children.

A glance at the cartoons will take you back to the era of newly free post-independent India.

Very good artistic works, but not much noticed by people. Good place for architecture and arts students to visit.

Very nice place to visit in kayamkulam. Have huge collection of cartoons , entry charge is only 5 rupees.

Creativity meet soul here.. Nice place

A wonderful place not to be missed. It's so close to the national highway that it's hard to miss.
Sankar was India's most acclaimed cartoonist and guru to likes of RK LAXMAN and balasaheb thhakre.
The museum lists all his work and articles about him to inspire the younger generations.
Sankar was the doyen of painting competition for children in India. His belief that art in childhood paves the way to making sincere adults. He dedicated his life for children's painting activities.
Paintings by children world over are displayed in the memorial. And are a great tribute to Sankar's vision.
The memorial is designed very beautifully.
It also houses an art gallery and painting exhibitions are conducted on Avery regular basis.
Entry fee is just Rs 20 and there are no restrictions on photography.
Ample space for parking is available.

You can enjoying art. Good place.

Great place of shankar sir

Good place for art lovers. Feels that lot of space is wasted. May be other paintings will be added later. This place is well maintained. We need to pay entry fee. Around 4 to 6 sculptures are exhibited outside. Hope that it will be maintained properly.

Really nice place, not rush. Peaceful
Great cartoons, paintings and scruptures

Nice place for one time visit

One of the best art gallery in the state

Very calm and quiet place even though it is facing national highway. Was there for a cartoon exhibition of my friend and this place depicts memories of great cartoonist Shankar

It is a wonderful collection of yesteryears cartoons, not only of Shankar. Also houses some sculptures. There are paintings from children of different countries probably from Shankar's International Painting Competition of those times.

This is situated near to National Highway, Which is easily visible from the normal traffic. sculptures are placed in front of this location which giving an extra beauty to this location. Krishnapuram palace is also a major destination of tourists

Well cartoon musuem situted in mukkada, in 2 hours can see the entire place and good atmosphere with nature beauty, if once visits suggesting to visit CPCRI also nearb this in mukkada infront of motel aram

Excellent work. One can witness the real history instead of the distorted history that has been taught us. Worth seeing art work.
