Many cultures are abandoned because the young generation who should preserve it, prefers modern culture, but some community groups do not forget the existing traditional arts. Some communities in which there are young people from Surabaya who participate in preserving the culture and developing it without destroying the original. All elements of traditional arts and culture that grow and develop in Surabaya society should be preserved.
