27 March - 07 April 2013
In celebration of the plaited arts in Kalimantan (and on the island of Borneo as a whole), the Lontar Foundation, in cooperation with Total E&P Indonesie Foundation, Bentara Budaya, and other partners, will host a series of related events in Jakarta over a period of ten days.
Two main events —a book launch and an exhibition— will be complemented by numerous other events, each and all aimed at raising public awareness of the beauty, creativity, and diversity of the plaited arts of Borneo.
The range of events is intended both to appeal to the cognoscenti and to excite interest among the wider public: from young to old; school children to university students; designers to researchers; and even to curious traveller and food lovers.
Free admission, open daily from 10.00-18.00 (longer if there is an evening function)
Location of venue : Bentara Budaya Jakarta Jl. Palmerah Selatan 17, Jakarta 10270 Tel: 021-5483008 ext 7910,7911.
