Just a 15-minute drive from the heart of Ubud lies Desa Keliki, a hidden gem pulsating with the artistic spirit passed down through generations. This small village is not only known for its natural beauty but also as a guardian of Bali's unique and invaluable artistic essence.
Established in 2008, Five Arts Studio stands proudly in the midst of this village, carrying the mission to preserve and introduce traditional Balinese art to the world. This studio is more than just a place to learn; it's a deep journey into the core of Balinese art, where every brushstroke and wood carving tells the stories of the ancestors.
What makes Five Arts Studio even more unique is its location within a traditional Balinese architectural compound. When you visit, you’ll not only connect with Balinese art and craftsmanship but also experience the beauty of authentic Balinese architecture. Every element of the building, from the entrance gate to the interior layout, reflects the deep philosophy and tradition of Bali.
At Five Arts Studio, visitors have the unique opportunity to see and interact directly with local residents, gaining insight into Balinese culture and the authentic traditions of family life. This immersive experience allows you to understand the true essence of Bali, not just through its art, but through the daily lives and customs of its people.
In this intimate and attentive setting, our classes offer a personalized learning experience, focusing on one-on-one communication between teacher and student. With very small groups, we ensure that each participant can highlight their imagination and artistic sensitivity, guided directly by talented and inspiring young Balinese artists.
