The Center sponsors cultural tours and workshops in several areas of the world. In Bali this year, we will be offering our second Integrated Arts and Culture Workshop specifically for teachers. This new program is designed as an immersion in Indonesian arts and culture for K-12 teachers and teaching artists who work in
K-12 schools, and does not require previous experience in any of the forms. Workshop Director, Bonnie Showers.
Participants will spend two weeks at the Center's Flower Mountain facility near Payangan Village, Bali. Instruction in mask theater, shadow puppetry, Balinese painting, temple offerings (flowers, bamboo, palm leaves), music (instrumental gamelan ensembles), and dance. This unique experience includes excursions to performances, temple ceremonies, ikat weaving and gamelan factories, and places of historical and cultural interest.
