Amazing experience with Angga and everyone there! The place feels really authentic and you can do a workshop where you do your own batik while being guided and helped, really recommend to do it when you are in Yogyakarta, it was definitely a highlight of our stay!

The people at Leksa Ganesha truly made us feel at home in their space. They helped guide us through the process of Batik making and really let us take our time. We never felt stressed. We really enjoyed this experience and we can only recommend you do it too!

A lovely way to spend a few hours learning about the Batik craft. The artist's don't rush you which we appreciated. We were also grateful to use one of the talented artist's premade designs since we aren't the most creative!! Highly recommend and make sure to check out the gallery too

It was lovely spending time with Leksa Ganesha and folks working with him. You'll spend around 3 hours learning the basics of batik, how to use wax to outline your design, and then dying. Everyone is really lovely, talkative, and was great experience as part of our trip in Jogja.

This activity was really great. All the people there were lovely, especially considering I came with my 6 and 8 yo daughters. They made sure it was safe for them to use the hot wax. It does not really take 3hrs, more like 1h30-2h, unless you want to do a lot of details, which is quite difficult for beginners. But the place is nice to hang out a bit afterwards and chat with other people and take a coffee. This will probably be one of the highlights of our trip to Indonesia!

Leksa Ganesha supports a local artist cooperative, providing them a platform and income while preserving batik art traditions.

Leksa Ganesha is a warm, welcoming artist collective tucked away in the peaceful village of Tembi, just outside Yogyakarta. Founded by Tatang Elmy Wibowo and Aprat Koeswadji, it sits beside Tatang’s family home – a place where his father once created batik before tending to the rice fields. The gallery brings together a talented group of local batik artists, offering them a space to share their work and stay connected to their craft. More than just a gallery, Leksa Ganesha is part of a resilient village rebuilt after the 2016 earthquake, where every visit helps support both the artists and the wider community. It’s a genuine, down-to-earth place rooted in tradition and local pride.
