The main focus is directed at increasing the availability of traditional musical instruments, strengthening members' capacity in playing gamelan, and integrating gamelan in Bantengan exercises and performances. The activity was carried out with a participatory-based community empowerment approach. The stages include identification of partner conditions, coordination and socialization of the program, provision of a set of gamelan, gamelan game training, training assistance, implementation in Bantengan performances, and sustainability evaluation. This model places the community as an active subject in the process of cultural preservation. The main intervention in the form of providing gamelan has succeeded in overcoming the limitations of traditional musical facilities. Padepokan members received basic technical training, coordination between players, and music synchronization with the Bantengan movement. The results of the activity showed an increase in musical capacity, the use of gamelan in training, and the re-strengthening of the traditional musical character of Bantengan which previously used instant music or DJ. Gamelan functions as a cultural infrastructure that supports the connection between means, skills, performance practices, and the regeneration of art actors. This service program proves that the provision of gamelan accompanied by training and mentoring is more effective than just providing physical facilities. Gamelan is a cultural asset that strengthens the Bantengan art ecosystem through sustainable practices, knowledge inheritance, and community interaction. In the future, sustainability is directed at intensifying the use of gamelan, digital documentation, educational content development, and collaboration with village governments, universities, and creative economy actors.</p> Ana Sopanah Istiadi Istiadi Devita Sari Irfany Rupiwardani Copyright (c) 2026 Ana Sopanah, Istiadi Istiadi, Devita Sari, Irfany Rupiwardani https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-08-05 2026-08-05 4 2 111 118 10.56070/jcd.v4i2.404 Optimizing the Potential of Dampar Beach through Tourism Development, Digitalization, and MSME Empowerment in Dampar Hamlet, Bades Village, Lumajang Regency https://ejournal.trescode.org/index.php/jcd/article/view/410 <p>Bades Village in Pasirian District, Lumajang Regency, holds significant economic development potential driven by tourism, Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), and digital technology advancements. Dampar Beach, noted for its natural beauty, was a key focus of the Student Community Service (KKN) program, as it offers great potential for further tourism development. However, realizing this potential faces several obstacles, including a lack of information about the site, inadequate management of information facilities, digital marketing challenges, unclear business legality, bookkeeping difficulties, and suboptimal use of digital payment systems. The KKN activities involved observation, mapping of existing potential and issues, mentoring, program implementation, supervision, and evaluation. Tourism-related initiatives included aligning the Dampar Beach location on Google Maps, launching the "Explore Dampar" campaign, updating maps and signage, and providing digital resources for tourists and local entrepreneurs. MSME-focused activities included guidance on online marketing and food delivery services, logo and packaging redesign, assistance with obtaining NIB (Business Identification Number) and Halal/P-IRT certifications, setting up digital cashbooks, integrating QRIS payments, and organizing an MSME bazaar. Meanwhile, digital initiatives focused on website creation and improving the village's social media presence. The program results demonstrated improvements in tourism information availability, MSME marketing, business legality, business digitalization, and village information channels. These initiatives can serve as a blueprint for the sustainable development of Dampar Beach and local MSMEs.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Fifin Alfiatur Rohmah Nur Khasanah Abdur Ro'uf Emmy Ermawati Copyright (c) 2026 Fifin Alfiatur Rohmah, Nur Khasanah, Abdur Ro'uf, Emmy Ermawati https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 2026-08-28 2026-08-28 4 2 119 126 10.56070/jcd.v4i2.410
