The year 2024 marked a milestone for AKI (Appreciation of Indonesian Creation), with events held in 12 cities across Indonesia, including Toba, Tanjung Pinang, Serang, Singkawang, Bekasi, Magelang, Blitar, Denpasar, Labuan Bajo, Palu, Ternate, and Merauke . A total of 10,000 participants registered, but only 360 were selected after a rigorous curation process. The theme “KREASI” (Creativity) was adopted for the 2024 Bootcamp.
In Denpasar itself, the event took place from April 30 to May 2, 2024, at the Fairfields by Marriott Hotel, with 40 participants. Being selected for the AKI program provides significant benefits, including capacity building and understanding through Bootcamp, networking and market expansion through Networking, and product or artwork publicity through the Exhibition.
Namaste 21 Handmade: A Proud Participant of AKI 2024
Praise the Lord! Namaste 21 Handmade is thrilled to announce that we have successfully passed the curation for the AKI 2024 event in the Bali region. Amidst the fierce competition, we are grateful to have been chosen as one of the selected participants from among the many who registered. This is a testament to the fact that our handmade craft products, made using burlap, are able to compete competitively with other products.
We believe that this achievement is not only a milestone for us as a company but also a recognition of the value and quality of local handicrafts. Namaste 21 Handmade has a golden opportunity to introduce the beauty and uniqueness of Balinese handicraft products to the world. We will be present at the exhibition organized by Apresiasi Kreasi Indonesia, so that we can share our cultural and artistic wealth with the wider community.
Thank you for your support and trust in us. Together, let us continue to fight for the development of the local handicraft industry and elevate the dignity of Indonesian culture in the eyes of the world.
