Tourism sector has grown to be the superior one with the fastest growth in the world and has been a locomotive of economic growth. Setabelan, Surakarta attempts to develop a culture and locality-based tourism village. This action research aims to analyze the process of empowering villagers conducted in participative manner by involving stakeholders with Friedman’s community empowerment theory. The result of research shows that community empowering process was conducted through the stage of producing citizens’ knowledge on village’s history, potency, need, and problem. The result of knowledge production was used as the data to design workshop to citizens through Focus Group Discussion (FGD) mechanism. A series of workshops have been implemented because people have interest in packaging the village’s cultural potency as tourist attraction. Citizens’ cultural potency was packaged in the forms of village profile book, village diary, documentary video, village sketch, Open Street Map (OSM) and infographic published through website and social media in order to be accessible broadly. Thus, empowering village through the potency owned in cultural context will provide knowledge, belief, understanding, and custom or habit or ethics guiding human behavior in living within its community.
