The village cluster of Ubud is the ideal place to try a famed Balinese massage and soak up the ambiance of one of Asia’s top spa destinations. Acupressure, reflexology, stretching and aromatherapy star in the island's distinctively firm massage treatments. Ubud is also the vivacious center of Bali’s arts scene, home to a small treasure trove of museums and galleries. Monkey around at nearby nature reserve Monkey Forest Park, home to hundreds of mischievous long-tailed macaques. Don’t miss the valley of tomb cloisters at Gunung Kawi.

Threads of Life is a fair trade business that uses culture and conservation to alleviate poverty in rural Indonesia. The heirloom-quality textiles and baskets we commission are made with local materials and natural dyes. With the proceeds from the Threads of Life gallery, we help weavers to form independent cooperatives and to manage their resources sustainably.
We bought some unusual items on a trip to Flores Island when we were there in 2012...one was a ceremonial piece from Sumba that they had only seen one other time...They had some nice weavings there for sale and the work they do there to encourage the tribes on the islands to use renewable sources for weaving and dyeing was very good as they were using commercial chemical dyes before and they were polluting and expensive as opposed to natural and renewable with only their labor instead of money...this was.around 2012..so disregard the years posted below....

We had an extensive visit in Wayan Gama's family compound and a wonderful exposure to Keliki style drawing. He and his family run a great school, with locals as well as tourists participating. If you want to learn more about Balinese art, you must visit. Not far from Ubud, set in the little village of Keliki.

Waow, now THIS is the cutting-edge art I was looking for in Ubud! really impressed with both the artworks on display and the cultural context the gallery provided for me in a very friendly way. Felt like I was visiting a cross between an artist's studio and a contemporary art museum - and to think I almost drove right past! Highly recommended.

Sari Api Ceramic Studio, located 3km north of Ubud offers a variety of classes and workshops to kids and adults. Learn to work with clay in a relaxed and nurturing atmosphere. All levels and all ages welcome. Ongoing classes for expats and studio time for semi professionals available too.
I did one day course with Susan and I was extremely impressed on her way to explain step by step each process: from clay composition to glazing. She pushed me to use the wheel, stepping out of my comfort zone. Moreover, she has kindly offered to glaze my bowl and send them to Australia. The studio is beautiful and peaceful, surrounded by nature, lush! Cannot recommend Susan and Sari Api studio more. Thank you again for the wonderful experience.
