Luchesta, meaning ‘Shining Star,’ is a youth public relations communication group that serves as science communicators by directly experiencing the museum’s major exhibitions, events, and educational programs, then creating promotional materials in various content forms to deliver science to the public in an easy and enjoyable way.

The closing ceremony was held with about 50 Luchesta members and their parents in attendance, proceeding in the order of activity presentations on this year’s work, awarding contest winners, and recognizing outstanding members.

Lim Woo-seok (Gwangju Seoseok High School), who received the Gwangju Mayor’s Award, said, “I have been active as a Luchesta member for the past six years since the 1st group, which helped me grow my interest in science and greatly assisted in planning my career by producing various types of content. I hope other students also enjoy science and actively participate in promoting science culture through Luchesta activities.”

Jeon Tae-ho, Acting Director of the National Gwangju Science Museum, expressed, “I thank the Luchesta members who actively promoted the museum and participated in activities over the past year,” and added, “The National Gwangju Science Museum will continue to communicate with the public through the operation of groups like Luchesta and the Science Mom Club, growing into a science culture space that everyone can enjoy together.”
