Gwangju Buk-gu to Host Art Travel Center Art Market on the 15th and 16th

On the 15th and 16th, Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 11th that it will hold the 'Art Travel Center Art Market,' where local artists, residents, and tourists can come together.

The Art Travel Center Art Market is an art travel content operated by Buk-gu since last year to promote local cultural arts and tourism activation by providing a place for meetings and communication between local artists, residents, and tourists, featuring various artworks and performances.

This event, held at the outdoor terrace area, is themed "Food Is Art: Meeting and Tasting," and will feature participating sellers' 'exhibition of works,' 'experience booths' where visitors can enjoy food, culture, arts, and various events, as well as 'promotion booths.'

Earlier in August, Buk-gu recruited about 80 seller teams including local artists, tourism planners, farmers, and residents to provide a rich variety of attractions. These sellers will showcase their works filled with personal stories, vintage items, design accessories, and food to residents and tourists during the event.

In particular, diverse side events such as ▲dance performances ▲jazz performances ▲food musical performances ▲food stylist lectures will be held on the special outdoor terrace stage and throughout the Art Travel Center, delighting visitors' eyes and ears and enhancing the atmosphere on site.

A Buk-gu official said, "This event focuses especially on activating communication among participants through the theme of tasting stories in the meeting space called the Art Travel Center," adding, "As this is the second year of the event, we will continue to hold it in the future so that Buk-gu's cultural and artistic resources can become representative tourism content of Gwangju."
