The Museum of Chettinad will offer visitors a look at the community’s history during the Chettinad Heritage and Cultural Festival, according to The Hindu. The museum is officially scheduled to open in November, while the festival begins this weekend.

The Museum of Chettinad will be opened to visitors as part of the Chettinad Heritage and Cultural Festival, The Hindu reports. The festival is scheduled to begin this weekend. Visitors will be given a preview of the museum, which is officially due to open in November.

The museum is described as preserving and presenting the memory of the Chettinad community. The supplied material does not provide details of its exhibits, location, collections or the people and institutions responsible for establishing it. It also does not state the exact dates of the festival or explain whether the museum will host permanent or temporary displays.

The available information links the preview to the festival and places the formal opening in November. The event will therefore provide an early opportunity for visitors to see the museum before its official opening, according to the report.
