This educational program, titled "Ara Hongryeon Paper Flower Mood Lamp Making," was themed around the Ara Hongryeon, a lotus flower that is considered representative of Korea and bloomed after 700 years of anticipation.

Focusing on the Ara Hongryeon, participants learned about the types, symbolism, and uses of lotus flowers, as well as lotus-shaped artifacts excavated in the Haman region and exhibited at the museum. They also had the opportunity to understand the structure of the lotus flower by expressing the flower and its leaves using LED bulbs and Hanji (traditional Korean paper).


Haman Museum's educational programs are held twice a month from April to December, with two sessions every Saturday. The programs are designed for elementary school students, their families, and local residents from culturally disadvantaged backgrounds, and are centered on the cultural heritage of Haman.


The second educational program at Haman Museum for July is scheduled for July 26, with two sessions at 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. It is titled "Museum Drawing Diary 2 (Exhibition Hall 1)" and will involve listening to an explanation of the history of Haman from the prehistoric period to the Unified Silla period in Exhibition Hall 1, while solving activity sheets and quizzes together.


Reservations for Haman Museum's educational programs can be made through the museum's website (up to 35 people per session) or on-site on the day of the program (up to 5 people per session). For inquiries regarding reservations, please contact the museum by phone.
