What, Vacationing There?... Ulsan Museum Operates 'Museum Vacation'

Experience the Ancestral Wisdom of Making a Wisteria Basket

The Ulsan Museum will operate the program "Ulsan Museum, Museum Summer Escape - Our Ancestors' Wise Summer Living" from the 16th to the 20th.

This "Museum Summer Escape" is an experiential program where citizens exhausted by the heat can spend a cool day at the Ulsan Museum and glimpse the wisdom of their ancestors' lives.

The experience involves making rattan baskets. Rattan baskets are tools used to hold food for drying or to wash and drain water, embodying the ancestors' wisdom to dry moisture quickly and keep food from spoiling.

The experience will be held twice a day (1 PM and 3 PM) for two hours each session over five days. Participants must be elementary school students or older, with a maximum of 30 participants per session. The participation fee is free, but the material cost is 5,000 KRW per person.

Applications will be accepted online on the Ulsan City Public Facility Reservation Service website from 10 AM on the 4th until 5 PM on the 14th on a first-come, first-served basis. Remaining spots will be available for on-site registration.

A representative from the Ulsan Museum said, "We recommend enjoying the 'Museum Summer Escape' by participating in the experience and learning the wisdom of our ancestors at the cool Ulsan Museum, away from the heat."

In line with this program, the museum is also recruiting youth volunteers. Youth residents of Ulsan aged 13 to 18 will be assigned roles to convey the museum's role and educational significance and assist in conducting the experience.

This is an opportunity to earn career experience and volunteer hours at the museum. For more details, visit the Ulsan Museum website or contact the Ulsan Museum.
