Batik crafting is a must-do activity when you’re in Sri Hartamas. Held in a neat little shop in Sri Hartamas, the Batik Craft Workshop has workstations for each one to work on their craft, with individual sets of materials and aprons. You will come to notice that the station you are assigned to will have your name labelled on it, setting a very welcoming tone.

The session starts off with a brief introduction to batik, as well as the humble origins of how Batik Boutique came to be with soft music accompanying in the background for nostalgia. A local expert and teacher of the day would then explain how its social enterprise was founded to assist lower-income women to earn a sustainable wage, that is through crafting batik.

This hands-on workshop not only lets you increase the batik craft awareness and their social cause, but also expands your knowledge and skill in making journals, cotton pareos, silk scarves, tote bags, tumbler inserts, tea towels, throw cushions, and so much more. The idea of how batik is intrinsically connected to nature helps build an experience that is important for the industry to move forward and sustain itself.

It is also here you learn that in spite of the breakneck speed of economic development, it is inspiring to know that modernisation hardly changes the true essence of batik crafting. The best part is undeniably to take home with you the personalized Batik Boutique product you have made.
