According to the results of the ‘2022 Artist Survey’ conducted by the Foundation last year, 75.6% of respondents indicated a high need for professional art education.

Accordingly, the Foundation decided to promote ‘Jeonbuk Artist Art+’ targeting professional artists by reflecting the opinions of artists. It is expected to provide artists with convenient and equal opportunities to participate.

To prevent the ongoing concentration of activities in Jeonju within the local art community and to enable artists to focus steadily on creative activities within their own living areas, operating organizations will be selected by region.

‘Jeonbuk Artist School Art+’ is an artist growth support academy based on art, selecting themes applicable in the art field. Regional operating organizations will conduct 5 to 10 educational programs and workshops (field trips) targeting local artists.

Through this public recruitment, about four organizations will be selected to plan and operate regionally specialized educational programs aimed at strengthening artists’ creative capabilities and artistic skills. Private organizations located in the province with a business registration certificate or unique number certificate are eligible to apply. Selected operating organizations will receive differential support ranging from 5 million to 10 million KRW per organization depending on the number and method of operations.

The announcement and application forms can be found on the Foundation’s website, and submissions must be sent via email by 6:00 PM on Friday, June 30. For more details, please contact the Creative Support Team.
