In Nyuh Kuning Ubud, Bali, Pendet birthplace, stands a museum called the Museum Pendet. The museum is collecting at least 80 sculptures, plus 29 paintings by Pendet too. The birth of this museum can not be separated from the ideals of the deceased so that a work of art can be used as a medium of education for the younger generation.

When there is an exhibition sculpture in 1982 and then in Nyuh Kuning, Wayan Pendet trying to convince the sculptors in the Banjar environment that not all works are sold for money. ”In addition to the sale, there should have been works of sculpture that remains stored in the village,”said Pendet at the time.
The result by borrowing Wantilan at Jaba Pura Desa, Nyuh Kuning, a sculpture exhibition unfold. Expressly provided that time there was work being sold and there is not.
After the exhibition, the sculpture is not sold is collected into the collection. Pendet too busy to convince all parties, what is the use if the collection is maintained in the village. Therefore, the works that later can be used as comparison for the younger generation.
”If the mind is only based on the spirit in sculpture reproductions, artwork will not be born. Indeed the reality is very difficult to convince all parties that not all the work we need to be sold, because the necessities of life is the main reason for our attitude towards his own works,”said Pendet.
So was born the museum that is named Museum Pendet. Pendet Museum Foundation, run by adapting the concept Pendet Wayan Balinese bale. The museum had until now remained was a small museum. But the most important thing there is in fact still remained to be learned and the younger generation, as a comparison and reflection if you want works of art.
Now the museum is run by one son Pendet, ie alias Wayan Gunasta GunGun in kala ngartun (make cartoons and caricatures).
When opened by the famous painter Ida Bagus Made (late) 14 April 1999 Pendet museum collecting wood sculptures, sandstone sculptures, paintings, works of the deceased.
