Looking for a fun, hands-on batik experience in Batik Malaysia? Or just curious how that beautiful waxed fabric becomes wearable art?
Meet Keri, our newest batik artist at Batik Boutique — and the creative soul behind our Batik Workshop in KL.
In-house artisan Keri shares her passion and expertise in traditional Malaysian batik, guiding participants through every step of the creative process.
With over four years of experience and a deep passion for traditional batik Malaysia, Keri has tried it all — canting, shibori, colour mixing, fabric selection — and she’s here to guide you, whether you're flying solo or joining a group of friends or colleagues.
“In our workshops, I want people to feel that batik is easy — like painting or drawing. It’s something anyone can do.”
Led by in-house artisan Keri, Batik Boutique’s workshops blend creativity, heritage, and community—making the art of Malaysian batik accessible to all.
What to Expect in a Batik Workshop
At Batik Boutique, our workshops are designed to educate, relax and connect people with Malaysian heritage and art. You’ll get:
Hands-On Learning
Draw with hot wax using traditional tools — and learn why precision matters.


Learn the traditional technique of wax drawing—where every line is made by hand and precision brings each design to life.
Creative Expression
Mix colours, play with shapes, and dye your own fabric masterpiece.
Mix colours, explore patterns, and express your creativity through the vibrant art of batik painting.
Take Home Your Creation
You’ll leave with a piece of art — and maybe a deeper appreciation for what handmade and handpainted by Malaysian artisans really means.
Participants proudly showcase their handmade batik pieces—each one a reflection of creativity, culture, and craftsmanship.
Is This for You? Absolutely.
Whether you’re:
- A solo explorer wanting to try something cultural
- A couple looking for a meaningful date activity
- A group of friends celebrating something special
Or a corporate team building activity in need of creativity and connection
We’ve hosted them all, and they’ve left with smiles, memories, and a better understanding of what real batik is.
You’ll get to design on fabric items like:
- Batik tote bags
- Scarves
- Pouches
- Frames
- Table runners
Each workshop creation reflects the beauty of hand-drawn batik, offering a meaningful and memorable hands-on experience.
More Than Just a Workshop
This isn’t a cookie-cutter activity. It’s a real experience of Malaysian tradition, made possible by the very artisans who keep this legacy alive.
You’ll learn how much time and love goes into every piece of Malaysian batik, how batik supports sustainability, and how your participation helps empower local communities — especially women from underserved backgrounds.
We’re also a B-Corp Certified social enterprise — which means we’re not just making batik. We’re making impact.
