JAKARTA - Illustrated Ramadhan Jakarta (IRJ) 2026 was officially opened on Friday (6/3) at SPAC8, ASHTA District 8, SCBD, Jakarta. This opening marks the start of a series of ten days of illustration-based and design-based Ramadhan celebrations which will take place until March 15, 2026.
IRJ 2026 is filled with works by illustrators from home and abroad, presenting various visual perspectives in responding to the values of Ramadan. Unlike the general celebration of Ramadan, IRJ offers a more curated and contemplative experience, inviting visitors to enjoy the holy month through a modern visual approach that is relevant to urban life.
Yoga Prathama, Initiator of Illustrated Ramadhan Jakarta, said that the opening of IRJ was a momentum to expand the way the public interprets Ramadan through visual media. "Through IRJ, we want to show that illustrations can be a bridge between tradition and present-day expression. Ramadan does not always have to be expressed with a uniform visual approach. There are many ways to celebrate and reflect on it, and we give space for illustrators to present personal interpretations but still rooted in spiritual values. "
For ten days, IRJ presents a series of programs that are designed not only to be enjoyed, but also experienced more personally. The exhibition area becomes a visual exploration space that invites visitors to stop for a moment, read the meaning behind each work, and immerse themselves in the interpretation of Ramadan from various points of view of illustrators.
In addition, IRJ also provides an interaction space that brings the public together with creators through sharing sessions, discussions, and participatory activities. The presence of a curated area of creative products also complements the experience, offering gifting options designed with a thoughtful design approach. This momentum is then closed every day with a gathering during the fasting, presenting an intimate atmosphere and strengthening the essence of Ramadan as a time for reflection and connection.
Supported by Simpati Telkomsel, Kahf and Wardah as brand partners, Illustrated Ramadhan Jakarta (IRJ) 2026 presents a collaboration that further enriches the visitor's experience in enjoying Ramadan in a more meaningful way.
