Namhae County in South Gyeongsang Province has been selected for the "2026 Cultural Day in Every Corner" public project, which is organized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Regional Culture Promotion Agency.


The "2026 Cultural Day in Every Corner" event will run from April to November. Unlike last year, the number of program sessions has been increased from 8 to 15. In particular, April has been designated as an intensive operational period at the start of the project, during which cultural events will be held for five consecutive weeks to raise awareness of the "Cultural Day in Every Corner" initiative.

Special events for April will begin with the "Our Neighborhood Busking" performance, allowing local residents to enjoy spring together. Other programs will follow in sequence, including "Traveling Neighborhood Cultural Playground," a mobile performance and experience program, "Art Walk," a series of small-scale cultural events held in alleys and everyday spaces, and the "Spring Night Picnic" for families and neighbors to enjoy together.


Starting in May, monthly programs are planned for local senior citizens, including experience-based, healthcare, and performance activities. There will also be art exhibitions and cultural appreciation programs to encourage participation from young artists in Namhae County.


Kim Jiyeong, head of the Culture and Sports Division of Namhae County, stated, "This year marks the second round of the 'Cultural Day in Every Corner' project, and with the expanded number of sessions, the program lineup has become even richer. We will do our utmost to enhance cultural accessibility for county residents and ensure that the people of Namhae can enjoy culture in their everyday lives through tailored programs."



Meanwhile, in South Gyeongsang Province, a total of 10 cities and counties have been selected for the "Cultural Day in Every Corner" public project, including nine county-level regions and one location in Jinju Innovation City. Each city and county will receive a project budget of 103 million won, which includes national, provincial, and local government funding.
