Shoe-Shaped Educational Tools Developed In-House by Museum

First-Come, First-Served Booking for 20 Teams per Session via Integrated Reservation System

A program to experience the history and culture of Gaya, which has a long history but was marginalized during the 'Three Kingdoms Period,' will be held at the Bokcheon Museum of the Busan Museum.


The Bokcheon Museum announced on the 5th that it will operate a winter vacation children's museum classroom program every day at 2 p.m. from the 14th to the 17th.


This program was planned to enhance the understanding of Gaya's history and culture for elementary school students and families during the winter vacation. Participants will explore the museum exhibition hall and engage in audiovisual learning about Gaya artifacts for two hours. It is an opportunity to deeply learn about Gaya culture while listening to artifact explanations.


There is also a hands-on session where participants can make shoe-shaped pottery artifacts themselves. This program uses teaching materials developed by the Bokcheon Museum, and participants can take home the works they create.


The program is free for teams consisting of elementary school students and their guardians in the Busan area. Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis through the Busan City integrated reservation system from 9 a.m. on the 6th to 6 p.m. on the 9th. Each session can accommodate 20 teams, and guardians can apply on behalf of their children, but only one student per account can apply.



The Bokcheon Museum stated, "We will provide opportunities not only to see Gaya artifacts in the exhibition hall but also to make and experience them directly," adding, "We have prepared various programs so that children and families can enjoy meaningful education and leisure together during the vacation."
