<![CDATA[This study aims to describe the implementation of a handmade workshop as an effort to develop the creativity of inmates at the Class III Rangkasbitung Correctional Institution. The study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation involving inmates who participated in the handmade workshop. The results showed that the handmade workshop was implemented through direct practice methods, starting from the introduction of tools and materials to the practice of making handicrafts. This activity was able to increase the active involvement of inmates and develop their creativity through more diverse handicraft products. In addition, the workshop also had a positive impact on inmates’ self-confidence, motivation, and participation in other development activities. Supporting factors included support from the correctional institution and the enthusiasm of the inmates, while the obstacles encountered were limited tools, materials, and implementation time. Therefore, the handmade workshop can serve as an effective skills development program in enhancing the creativity and self-potential of inmates.]]>
