International Arts Education Week

The Korea Arts & Culture Education Service (KACES) is a public agency within the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Korea, established pursuant to the Support for Arts and Culture Education Act. KACES provides systematic and comprehensive support for arts and culture education to enhance the creative capabilities of individuals and communities, encourage participation in the arts, and improve the cultural well-being of all Koreans, thereby advancing the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cultural development and its cultural capabilities.

KACES operates various programs involving Arts Education for Schools, Arts Education for Communities, HR Training for teaching artists, Policy Research for Arts Education, Public Relations, and International Cooperation for Arts Education.

President's Message

Arts and culture education is blossoming.

Korea Arts & Culture Education Service (KACES) proudly celebrated our 10th anniversary this past year. Founded in 2005 with a mission to enrich Korean society through happier and more fulfilled lives, KACES has strived since its inception to encourage social engagement through arts and culture.

Over the past decade, the discipline of arts and culture education has evolved and gained greater credibility. It has attained the recognition it deserves as a powerful medium through which learners can cultivate strong values and discover who they truly are.

To offer a few examples, a small school in a remote village that was on the brink of closing down managed to revive itself thanks to arts and culture education.

Likewise, we hear of a 70-year-old gentleman becoming a rising star in the theater, and of a family forming a weekend music band.

Society has turned to arts and culture education to heal lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wounds and to support each other in times of need. KACES will work hard to promote arts and culture education in Korea in the firm belief that creativity and experiential learning are valid ways of developing essential knowledge and skills. Furthermore, the arts lead people to be more considerate and respectful of each other. They offer hope for the future by encouraging empathy and meaningful interaction among people from diverse cultures and segments of society, as well as people with different physical and psychological challenges.

At KACES, we believe in the power of the arts to change the world. We will go on developing innovative, enjoyable programs to generate greater interest in the arts, and to enrich the lives of all Koreans who share our belief in the power of the arts. We will continue working for a prosperous and vibrant arts and culture education scene, and we look forward to your continued support and interest.

Thank you.

PRESIDENT KOREA ARTS & CULTURE EDUCATION SERVICE

KACES is in the vanguard of creating a world where arts and culture education is accessible to all, from toddlers to the elderly; a society where everyone has ample opportunities to enjoy culture and the arts, and jobs that enhance the professional competence of teaching artists and advance the field.

Arts and Culture Education for Preschool Children Participation in arts and culture helps children develop In early childhood, children explore their surroundings and develop the basic learning skills that will guide them throughout life. They need an environment where they can express themselves through various media. To facilitate this, KACES dispatches professional teaching artists to preschools and daycares throughout the country. KACES also implements arts and culture programs for preschoolers.

Teaching Artists in Schools Artists come to our schools In cooperation with the Ministry of Education, 17 metropolitan and provincial offices of education, and 16 local Arts and Culture Education Support Centers, KACES supports elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as special education and alternative schools throughout Korea, in incorporating arts and culture education in the form of eight disciplines: Korean traditional music, theater, film, dance, animation, crafts, photography, and design. Our goal is to create an educational environment where children and young people are free to develop their artistic and creative capabilities and build character by experiencing the arts.

Who are teaching artists and why to send them to schools?

Our certified and licensed teaching artists are also working artists who have majored in the relevant disciplines. With a wealth of experience and knowledge to draw upon, teaching artists nurture studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; individual creative capabilities while continuing to work as artists in their fields. These programs equip students to think independently, express themselves effectively, reach out to others, and, ultimately, enjoy life more.

Teaching artists go everywhere, including remote areas that often lack access to arts and culture experiences.

Students learn to see the world from a unique perspective by using a pinhole camera and a digital camera.

Imaginative Arts Experience Program Teams of teaching artists can also visit culturally alienated areas and offer custom-designed integrated arts education programs during school vacations.

This project offers an opportunity for children and youth to enjoy unique experience and chances for teaching artists to learn new and flexible ways to develop education programs.

I joined the program with a light heart. I felt like it was about having fun with the children, without feeling obligated to teach something.

I believe this experience will be a good inspiration for my future classes.

Arts-Flower Seeds (Yaesulkot Shi-at ) School Project

시그니춰

Let flowers bloom in small schools The aim of the Arts-Flower Seeds (Yaesulkot Shi-at ) is to support small schools (those with less than 400 students) in remote communities, where local residents may not have adequate exposure to the arts, by strengthening the infrastructure for arts and culture education. By upgrading the communities’ cultural and human resources, students have better chances to express themselves and gain exposure to culture. Ultimately, the goal is to help the schools and their communities to grow together—to realize their shared hopes and dreams for better arts and culture education. 시안3

Website : flower.arte.or.kr

CSR helps the seeds sprout Having initiated the Arts-Flower Seeds School Project and seen good results, A group of participating schools are selected and designated as “Arts Flower Sprout Schools”. These schools are connected with local business interested in supporting the arts as part of their corporate social responsibility programs, thereby laying the groundwork for continued growth.

As of 2015, there were 12 “Arts Flower Sprout Schools” in Korea.

Kookmin Bank provided support for the project between 2012 and 2014.

Shinhan Bank began supporting it in 2015 and has pledged its ongoing support through 2018.

Changho Elementary School is the only school on a small island called Gajodo, part of the city of Geoje in Gyeongsangnam-do, with a beautiful view of the sea.

Music never stops playing there. Students, teachers, and parents are active in music clubs such as the Dream Sound Ensemble, Pado Sori (meaning ‘sound of waves’), and Yekkot Sori (meaning ‘sound of arts flowers’).

The music has spread far beyond the walls of the school and can be heard all over the island.

Standing taller by tapping our creative potential In cooperation with the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, KACES provides opportunities for young people who use the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Youth Centers and its Youth Culture Centers to experience the process of creating a performing arts piece, from the planning and production stages right through to its performance on stage, with the help of professional performing arts companies.

Participants work with professional artists in such fields as dance, musical theater, visual arts, theater, and music to create the work. Throughout the ten-month process, they exchange ideas and meet the challenges together. The program nurtures their communication skills and their ability to work with others as well as their creative skills.

Full Bloom Imagination, Arts and Culture Education for Seniors in High School Encouraging students to take their imaginations a step further KACES also provides arts and culture education programs for seniors in high school and students who have just completed the college entrance exam. The program will spur interest in the humanities, culture, and arts and will relieve the stress of studying. For many students, it is a chance to enjoy arts and culture activities that they did not have time to pursue earlier in the year.

After taking the exam, all I was doing at school was studying half-heartedly or watching movies to kill time. This program was a unique opportunity for me to do something different and gain a new perspective.

Kumdarak Saturday Cultural Schools Kumdarak made Saturdays different for families With the full introduction of a five-day workweek in 2012, KACES began offering Arts and Culture Education programs in cooperation with other related agencies and arts and culture groups to give families interesting things to do on Saturdays.

The Kumdarak Saturday Culture School expands channels for communication within the family and among friends by providing a space where they can spend time together and take part in interesting activities.

Arts and Culture Education for Workers Interdepartmental Cooperations & Arts and Culture Education Partnerships with Regional Agencies

Fun gatherings after work: a source of inspiration and happiness In cooperation with the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy, KACES seeks to support workers in the industrial complexes and Technoparks by encouraging them to participate in the community and the arts. Workers of different rank, from different divisions and areas of specialization, can bond after work through arts and culture activities. They can let out stress after work and make friends.

After taking part in this program, some of the workers started volunteering in their local communities, which brought great satisfaction to their lives.

Every November, communities across the nation unite for the “Happiness Festival,” where participants share their achievements over the past year.

To encourage diversity in arts and culture education, we are striving to create an environment in which every citizen can participate in the process of sharing, communicating, and learning.

Whereas music education in Korea traditionally involved playing an instrument and taking on an apprenticeship, the aim of this program is to produce well-rounded individuals who love music.

Website : www.orchestrakids.or.kr The Orchestra of Dreams, founded in 2010, is the only official Korean partner of the Venezuelabased Fundación Musical Simón Bolívar. Also known as El Sistema, the Fundación is a publicly financed voluntary sector music education program that signed an agreement with Orchestra of Dreams in 2012.

Woorock Boorock , Creative Summer Arts Camp Creating a dream arts playground with artists In 2010, “Woorock Boorock” started as a creative camp for children and young people during school vacations. The underlying concept is “playing with artists” in an unfamiliar place. Children can make artist friends at the camp and cultivate their creativity by making art. To share these valuable experiences with more children, we have been working with local arts and culture education centers since 2014 to encourage more children to join.

Arts and Culture Education Healing Project Dreaming of a society where everyone is healed In connection with the Ministries of National Defense, Justice, Gender Equality and Family, and Education, as well as the National Police Agency, KACES helps individuals with minor mental health problems, or those in the recovery phase, to accelerate their recovery through creative work. KACES provides group therapy and encourage participants to express themselves through painting and music.

The program is informed by our best understanding of counseling techniques and psychological theories. KACES also works with well-trained personnel from art therapy organizations who have the expertise to help us develop customized art therapy programs. KACES seeks to verify their effectiveness by conducting surveys, thereby strengthening the knowledge base in the art therapy field.

The arts can be an essential outlet for people who are angry and traumatized.

People living with mental illness can open up when they are truly recognized and supported.

Official Development Assistance

Giving back to the international community We operate projects that involve sending arts and culture education professionals, including Korean teaching artists, to developing nations to share know-how and best practices gained as a result of Korea’s development experience. This work strengthens the field of arts and culture education and also helps to position Korea as a leader in the global community. Our programs in this area encompass not only education for children and youth, but also professional development for local educators and related personnel. We seek to empower our partner countries to hold onto their cultural identity and pursue stronger competitiveness for the longer term.

KACES, the province of Lao Cai in Vietnam, and KOICA’s Vietnam office signed a trilateral agreement in 2013 on cooperation to support arts and culture education in Vietnam until 2017.

KACES planned and implemented a Korean-Vietnamese youth exchange program, “Dae jeong da gam Ða tình da càm,” in 2012 and held an exhibition in Korea with works created through cultural and artistic exchanges between Korean and Vietnamese youths participating in the official development assistance(ODA) project.
