BSS promotes Madhubani painting, sikki-mauni, bamboo craft, bangles and terracotta, organising artisans into self-help groups, building skills and helping them sell their work.

In 2025-26 we surveyed 300 artisans and 40 non-artisans in Madhubani and 100 artisans and 60 non-artisans in Darbhanga, to plan a Mithila painting livelihood programme with better market access, skills and producer institutions.
