Gyeonggi Province Connects Culture and Arts Education Providers and Recipients... Recruiting Participants Until May 29

Gyeonggi Province is launching a new initiative this year to connect residents with limited access to culture and arts education to instructors who provide such educational opportunities.

On May 19, Gyeonggi Province announced that it will implement the "2026 Gyeonggi Province Culture and Arts Education Opportunity Expansion Project" as a new program this year and is currently recruiting participants through a dedicated online platform (https://gyeonggi-arts.web.app) until May 29.

This year, for the first time, Gyeonggi Province has designed a system using an online platform to directly connect facilities in need of culture and arts education with arts organizations equipped with the necessary capabilities. Facilities seeking programs can directly review available offerings and discuss details with providers of culture and arts education, thereby enabling customized, on-site education.

Through this open call, Gyeonggi Province plans to select a total of 150 matched pairs of demand-side facilities and supply-side providers who have completed mutual consultations.

The selected facilities will offer tailored culture and arts education in diverse fields—including music, visual arts, theater, dance, Korean traditional music, film, photography, and interdisciplinary arts—from June to November.

The program is open to support facilities serving underprivileged groups within the province as demand-side participants, while providers may include individual arts instructors capable of tailored program planning and operation, as well as culture and arts corporations or non-profit organizations.

Kwak Sun-mi, Director of the Arts Policy Division of Gyeonggi Province, stated, "This project is significant in that it directly connects sites in need of culture and arts education with qualified education providers, creating artistic experiences tailored to each facility's circumstances and participants. Gyeonggi Province will work to ensure that culture and arts education is not a privilege for a select few but a tangible experience that reaches every corner where it is needed, by promoting the project in a stable and effective manner."
