2017 Nam Center Professional Development Workshop for Educators

Korea through the Arts: Tradition and Modernity
Saturday, September 23, 2017
9:00 AM-4:30 PM
Room 455 Weiser Hall Map
While we often hear news about Korea’s security issues and smartphones, little is said about Korea’s rich artistic traditions that go back millennia.

Through a series of lectures focused on dance, music, and fine arts, as well as a hands-on demonstration on Korean folk painting and a visit to the Korean galleries at the University of Michigan Museum of Art, this workshop will shed light on contemporary Korean arts, showing how Korea has reinterpreted its own tradition, merged it with the contemporary global practice and successfully exported it all over the world.

What to expect: engaging lectures on Korea, provided by specialists in the field; teacher resource kits; a tour of the Korean galleries at the University of Michigan Museum of Art; lunch and coffee breaks; travel reimbursements for eligible participants.

Reserve your spot today—registration is limited.
Registration deadline: September 20.
It is possible to participate in-person or remotely (online).

SCECH credits (5) available both for in-person and online participants ($10 processing fee).
