Taman Baca Kesiman


Mission and objectives

Taman Baca Kesiman was established on the left side of Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia. It’s a space where diversity and equality meet. Diversity is the most beautiful gift from the Creator, and we must take care of it with a spirit of openness, maturity and equality. Taman Baca Kesiman presents reading, reading rooms, canteen, gardens and green fields as terminals to assemble the colourful life of Denpasar’s multi-ethnic, cross-sectoral and transnational city to become a cool and beautiful city in the hearts of citizens.

Main activities with youth

Book talks, discussions on socio-political issues, and art exhibitions.

Their story

The reading park at Jalan Sedap Malam Number 234, Denpasar, is a smart hangout for various groups, especially young people. The reading park, which was just established in 2014, is more appropriately called a book kitchen because it is designed as a place to read books while eating, drinking, and meeting or just a place to hang out for the community.
