The museum was established in April 1977 by the Tribal Research Institute under Education Department. In 1989 it came under Art and Culture department, up till now. The museum was earlier housed in a rented building but on 14 July 1990 it was moved to a new building, at Mc Donald Hill. The museum galleries have undergone a lot of renovation under the care of Indian Museum, Kolkata. Financial assistance was also received from Victoria Memorial, Kolkata.
