The center was created by remodeling the first floor of the left wing of Hwaseong Citizen University. For user convenience, it is equipped with facilities for persons with disabilities, including ▲handrails ▲braille blocks ▲entrance doors with widths accessible for wheelchairs ▲and elevators.


The center consists of a study room, dance practice room, exhibition room for artworks, office, counseling room, and a book caf?. The city plans to operate various lifelong learning programs for persons with disabilities at the center, such as flower arranging, line dance, forest experience programs, and exhibitions of works by persons with disabilities.


At the opening ceremony, a plaque unveiling ceremony was also held for the 'Lifelong Learning City Operation Project for Persons with Disabilities,' which was selected last year through a public contest by the National Institute of Special Education under the Ministry of Education and is currently in operation.



Jung Myung-geun, mayor of Hwaseong City, said, "We will operate various programs centered on the Lifelong Learning Center for Persons with Disabilities to make it a space of growth and hope for persons with disabilities in Hwaseong City."
