Full description

This is a 3-hour experience in Ubud. It is run by Five Arts Studio, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Ubud is the centre of Bali's craft villages: Celuk for silver and gold work, Mas for woodcarving, Batuan for its style of painting, and Batubulan for stone. Craft classes take the same skills into a workshop with an instructor and take three to four hours, and you leave with the piece you made. Silver classes work in sterling silver with hand tools, saws and a torch; carving classes work in soft hibiscus or jackfruit wood; batik uses hot wax and dye on cotton and needs time to dry. The classes are hands-on rather than demonstrations, so wear something that can take dye or wax.

The price covers Guided wood carving, All necessary carving tools and materials, Refreshments and Snack. It does not cover Hotel pickup and drop-off and Meals, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Five Arts Studio sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Five Arts Studio before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

  • Guided wood carving
  • All necessary carving tools and materials

We had a great time at the five arts studio. The artisans were very gentle and taught us very good how to do our piece and they were with us all the time guiding us. They have many other activities you can do at the studio as well
