Embracing Mythology, The Unquenchable Flame Exhibition.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yeo Jong-gu] Pohang City Museum of Art will take a short break after the closing of the exhibition "Embracing Myth: The Unquenchable Flame" on the 9th.

The exhibition, planned to promote the identity of the region and create a new turning point in perception by interpreting Pohang's symbol, the steel industry, from an artistic and humanities perspective, received great response from citizens.

Despite difficulties such as advance reservations, limits on the number of visitors due to social distancing, and the application of quarantine passes, over 24,000 visitors attended.

Additionally, there was high demand for audio guides introducing the exhibition and on-site docent tours to aid understanding. The "POMA Sign Language Docent" for the hearing impaired was also introduced for the first time, attracting attention.

The exhibition appreciation workbook program for elementary school students, "The Museum is My Friend," was fully booked early, with 120 children participating, providing an opportunity to broaden their perspective on understanding artworks.

Pohang City Museum of Art will temporarily close from the 10th for exhibition replacement, and the next exhibition is scheduled to open on the 25th.
