This art show is expected to provide citizens with a great opportunity to enjoy culture and arts by showcasing works from renowned local artists such as Gangnam-gu, Kim Jae-min, Kim Yong-woo, Son Man-seok, Shin Seon, Lee Byung-oh, Lee Inam, Jeong Gwang-ju, Jeong Cheol, and Hong Ji-ae all in one place.

Im Taek, Mayor of Dong-gu, said, “I hope this exhibition will be a good opportunity to revitalize the local cultural and artistic community, which has been stagnant due to COVID-19,” and added, “We will continue to promote cultural policies befitting the status of Dong-gu as a cultural center, such as support projects for local artists.”
