Four artists will also be performing in the exhibition. “Besides enjoying the art of batik, visitors can also see batik demonstrations and how to use canting as the main tool to paint with fabrics,” Budi said.

The batik exhibition is supported by state-owned railway company PT Kereta Api Indonesia (PT KAI), which has prepared a tourism train to facilitate visitors from outside Pekalongan. Selamet Prihantono, Pekalongan Trade Industry, Cooperative, and Small to Medium Scale Businesses Office chief, said the Pekalongan municipality hoped the event can increase the income of batik makers and artists in Pekalongan. “The event can also generate interest for the international batik business,” he said.
