Abstract

Traditional dance faces sustainability challenges amid globalization and the dominance of digital culture, including the Nanas Madu Dance, which represents the local culture of Pemalang Regency. This study aims to analyze the existence of the Nanas Madu Dance at Sanggar Seni Tilamsari and the preservation strategies applied. The research uses a descriptive qualitative method with a sociological approach to art and SWOT analysis. The findings show that Sanggar Tilamsari plays an active role in sustaining the dance through training, performances, and the use of digital media. However, challenges such as limited dancer regeneration, lack of promotional resources, and the influence of popular culture remain obstacles. Observations reveal that dance sustainability depends not only on aesthetic value but also on community participation and technological adaptation. This study recommends the need for policy support, digital literacy for art practitioners, and collaboration with educational institutions to strengthen local cultural preservation. These findings affirm that traditional arts remain relevant when they can evolve contextually. The Nanas Madu Dance is not merely a relic of the past, but a cultural opportunity for the future that must continue to be revitalized.

Abstract

This research examines the synergy between the Wayang Orang Ngesti Pandowo performing arts and higher education in supporting sustainable development (SDG 4), with a focus on integrating local wisdom to foster social cohesion among university students. As a cultural heritage form rich in moral values such as gotong royong, tolerance, and respect for tradition, Wayang Orang Ngesti Pandowo has excellent potential to build students’ social awareness and cultural identity. This research employs qualitative methods, utilizing data collection techniques such as in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, to explore how this performing art can be integrated into the higher education curriculum. The results showed that students’ involvement in Wayang Orang performances significantly increased their sense of community, social interaction, and understanding of local wisdom values while creating an inclusive learning environment. Students’ participation in the creative process, from rehearsal to performance, also positively impacted their communication, cooperation, and leadership skills. In addition, the collaboration between students and Wayang Orang artists strengthened social ties in the academic community and wider society. This research recommends that higher education institutions systematically integrate local wisdom-based performing arts into their curriculum through workshops, training, and collaboration with arts communities, as well as encouraging the government to support the preservation of local culture through educational policies. Thus, this research makes a significant contribution to the development of local culture-based education theory and practice, serving as a model for future similar initiatives that support social cohesion and sustainable education.
