Seminyak — BK Creative Hub, also known as Blue Karma Creative Hub, has opened in Seminyak as a new art and cultural space bringing together contemporary exhibitions, creative workshops and immersive experiences for visitors and residents. According to a feature in NOW! Bali, the hub officially launched in mid‑June 2026 with a solo exhibition by Indonesian artist Ade Habibie titled Monkey Spirit. Tripadvisor listings describe BK Creative Hub as an art and cultural space in Seminyak offering rotating artworks and creative activities.
The hub is located on Jalan Plawa, Gang Melati No. 2 in Seminyak, Badung, a location also used in hotel and attraction listings for BK Creative Hub. The venue forms part of the Blue Karma hospitality and lifestyle portfolio founded by entrepreneur and artist Alexa Genoyer, whose boutique properties are established in Bali.
Opening exhibition: Monkey Spirit
NOW! Bali reports that the launch of BK Creative Hub marked the debut of Ade Habibie’s solo exhibition Monkey Spirit. The exhibition features 35 original works displayed across two gallery cubes, The Cube 1 and The Cube 2, which together make up the core exhibition space.
According to the same report, the collection uses the monkey as a playful recurring symbol to explore human emotion, instinct and vulnerability. A later feature on a VIP gastronomic evening hosted inside the exhibition space notes that the setting encouraged conversations between guests and Ade Habibie, reinforcing the exhibition’s focus on creative exchange between artist and visitors.
NOW! Bali describes the main exhibition area as approximately 250 square metres, complemented by other creative facilities within the hub. The article states that Monkey Spirit is open to the public, offering visitors and art connoisseurs the chance to experience the works while discovering Seminyak’s newest creative space.
A participatory creative venue
BK Creative Hub is presented by NOW! Bali as more than a conventional gallery. At its heart is the exhibition space, but it is complemented by interactive workshop studios, Sensual Clay and Sensory experiences, and an Art Café where food and colour are incorporated into the creative experience. A separate feature on a VIP dinner inside the exhibition further highlights the venue’s use of gastronomy, music and storytelling as part of its immersive programming.
Tripadvisor’s description of BK Creative Hub similarly portrays it as an art and cultural space bringing together contemporary exhibitions, creative workshops and immersive experiences, with visitors able to explore rotating artworks. A Linktree profile for Blue Karma Creative Hub, active since June 2026, connects the hub’s social media channels with options to view an exhibition catalogue, visit the gallery and access Lucy Dream Art, a platform for contemporary art and local artists.
Visitor information
According to NOW! Bali, BK Creative Hub is open to visitors from Tuesday to Sunday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. local time, with Monday as the weekly closing day. The article provides a contact telephone number and notes that further information is available via the hub’s Instagram account @bluekarmacreativehub. Tripadvisor also lists BK Creative Hub as currently open and identifies it as an art gallery and speciality museum in Seminyak.
The Linktree profile confirms that Blue Karma Creative Hub established its online presence in June 2026 and routes visitors to exhibition information and contact channels. NOW! Bali lists lucydreamart.com alongside the hub’s details, and the Linktree site indicates Lucy Dream Art as a place to discover unique contemporary art and local artists, suggesting a relationship between the platform and the creative hub.
