Live Online Special Lecture on 2020 Lifestyle Culture Arts 'Growing Four Spans' Available at 3 PM on the 23rd via Jungnang-gu Office YouTube Channel

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) will conduct a live online special lecture on the 2020 Living Culture and Arts 'Growing Fourfold' at 3 p.m. on the 23rd through the official Jungnang-gu Office YouTube channel.

This special lecture, lasting about 70 minutes, will be conducted by Choi Hye-ja, CEO of Culture Design Jari and an expert in living culture and arts, under the theme "Art in Everyday Life, Start Now!".

The lecture is composed of four areas: the self-subjectivity of people creating culture, everyday life of living, playing, and coexisting through living culture and arts, cultural sensitivity, and community growth through cultural networks, explaining ways to start art in daily life.

In particular, besides the lecture, performances and activity videos showcasing living culture and arts artists in Jungnang-gu will be screened to introduce various living culture and arts clubs to residents.

Additionally, to encourage residents to take interest and participate in living culture and arts, a quiz event based on general knowledge about living culture and arts and Jungnang-gu will be held after the lecture. Twenty-one winners of the real-time quiz will receive small prizes.

Moreover, a more diverse special lecture is expected, including a raffle of souvenirs for 20 participants who send real-time chat support messages.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, said, "During the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, I support the living culture and arts artists who are blossoming art in everyday life throughout Jungnang-gu," and added, "I hope this special lecture will provide residents with an understanding of living culture and arts and an opportunity to participate in local living culture and arts."

'Living culture' refers to art and cultural activities voluntarily conducted by residents. Currently, Jungnang-gu has a living culture network called 'Yerangkkumrang (Art Jungnang, Dreaming Jungnang),' consisting of about 140 living culture and arts clubs including music bands, calligraphy, folk songs, face painting, Korean traditional music, aromatherapy, calligraphy, sewing, and more.

The district is carrying out the 'Living Culture and Arts 2.0' project, which encompasses discovering clubs, providing activity spaces, and linking activities with local festivals so that residents can become the main agents of artistic activities and engage in various cultural and artistic fields.
