Bokcheon Museum to Operate “Spring Gaya Artifacts Class” for Elementary School Students on April Public Holidays

내용

Busan Metropolitan City announced that Bokcheon Museum, affiliated with the Busan Metropolitan City Museum, will operate the “Spring Gaya Artifacts Class” for elementary school students every Sunday in April.

The program will be held four times on April 5, 12, 19, and 26, and participants can take part for two hours from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

The “Spring Gaya Artifacts Class” is a program designed to help participants understand Gaya by directly creating Gaya artifacts—such as seven-pronged bells, shoe-shaped pottery, helmets, and gilt-bronze crowns—using teaching kits developed by Bokcheon Museum.

Participants will first gain a basic understanding of the artifacts through audiovisual lectures and guided tours of the exhibition hall, followed by hands-on artifact-making activities.

Each session focuses on a different artifact: seven-pronged bells (April 5), shoe-shaped pottery (April 12), helmets (April 19), and gilt-bronze crowns (April 26).

Any elementary school student residing in Busan can participate free of charge as a team with one guardian. Applications can be submitted on a first-come, first-served basis via the Bokcheon Museum website (museum.busan.go.kr/bokcheon) from 9:00 a.m. Monday to 6:00 p.m. Wednesday of the respective program week.

While guardians may apply on behalf of the student, only one student may be registered per ID.

Seong Hyeon-ju, Director of Bokcheon Museum, stated, “Through this educational program, participants will be able to understand Gaya artifacts and culture and appreciate their value,” adding, “We hope for great interest and participation from citizens with elementary school children.”
