Arts Communication Model: The Development of Performing Arts through Empowering Cultural Art-Based Tourism

“…Activities in local cultural carnivals foster a love for the natural, social, artistic, and cultural environment, which increasingly impacts creative activities to grow the economic aspects of the local community (Waterman, 1998;Kusumastuti & Priliantini, 2017). Local cultural carnivals are part of the joy of the local community (Daza et al, 2021) to share in experiencing cultural events, which in turn also gives a sense of belonging to the tourist sites that have been built. This can foster togetherness and mutual care for parts of their environment, including tourism sites as a center for the cultural expression of the local community.…”
