Join Dr. Linda McIntosh, a Southeast Asian textile expert, and Mr. Tony Labuan, Deputy Director of Tourism in Lembata Regency, East Indonesia, for a Lembata textile study trip on Lembata Island, East Indonesia. This study trip is held in conjunction with Carnival Lamaholot, a festival dedicated to Lamaholot culture. This year’s focus is on traditional textiles. Activities include exhibitions and demonstrations by weavers from different parts of Lembata and adjacent islands such as Flores, Solor, Adonara, and Ternate of Alor Regency.
The study trip will meet weavers in their home villages in Ile Api, Atadei, and Tapobali for dancing and textile production demonstrations. Participants have the rare opportunity to visit a traditional village of 77 clan houses. We will view some of their sacred heirlooms.
