Galeri Pinawetengan

Pinawetengan cloth is a traditional Minahasa cloth. The Pinawetengan cloth made its debut in 2005. At first, the Minahasa people had two types of traditional wastra, namely Bentenan and Pinatikan cloth. However, about 100 years ago, these two fabrics were no longer produced and used by local people. Until then, the North Sulawesi Institute of Arts and Culture Foundation initiated the development of Pinawetengan cloth with the local wisdom of Minahasa culture.
