Keep Kalm,
Keeping
Craft Alive

Kalm wants to create a place that brings people together through the love of art, craft, and culture.

We believe in the ability of art, craft, and culture to educate, engage, inspire and empower.

Kalm Village is an Art, Crafts, and Culture Center in the heart of Old Town Chiang Mai. Through means of architecture, objects, food, archive, workshops, dynamic exhibitions, residency programs, happenings, and conversations, our goal is to empower local wisdom, makers, and communities, through space and contemporary platforms.

“In order to carry on our ancestral wisdom, it has to be practiced all the time

like a river flowing.

The river will still be a river and not be left dry

when the old stream flow on, and the new stream flow in to replace continuously.”

What’s On

At Kalm Village, we celebrate and explore diverse artistic, cultural, and historical subjects where heritage and innovation converse. Our programs, event, and happenings are thoughtfully curated to foster the understanding and appreciation of the arts, crafts, and cultures in various dimensions.

OUR REGULAR

WORKSHOP

The Land I Attached

Exhibition at MoM & Kalm Gallery

05 April 2025 - 17 June 2025

by Wah Nu

As the second chapter in her trilogy, following The Place I Belong (Yangon, 2023), this exhibition explores Wah Nu’s deep connection to her homeland and pays tribute to its people.

Created between 2020 and early 2025, these works merge natural and manmade landscapes—mountains, oceans, and towering stupas veiled in clouds—each telling its own story. 

Museum of Makers (MOM)

The Museum of Makers (MOM) is a part of Kalm Village, an Art, Craft, and Culture center in Old Town Chiang Mai, Thailand.

The center is dedicated to all the makers and creators that surround us, who came before and in all of us. The word “mom” or “แม่” in Thai and many Asian cultures, other than signifying the ‘creator’ also has various deep meanings, including a term of endearment and respect.
