“The Hidden Treasures of Korean Art and Modern
Korea,” a program of the Korean Spirit And Culture Promotion Project (KSCPP),
will be presented at Bernardsville Public Library on Saturday, June 22 at 11:30 am. Two
documentary films about Korea will be shown, the first film illustrating the
artistic and cultural achievements of Korea's past, and the second demonstrating
Korea's industrial achievements since the Korean War. The films will be followed by the re-enactment
of traditional Korean wedding ceremony and a full, complimentary traditional Korean
meal. There is no charge to attend, but
advance sign-up is required.
Once known as
the Land of the Morning Calm, Korea now possesses the 10th to 12th largest
economy in the world and plays an important role in the world's economy,
culture, and politics. Korean Spirit & Culture Promotion Project is a
501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is dedicated to raising awareness of
Korean history and culture. In
appreciation for United States support for Korea during the Korean War and in
the years that followed, KSCPP has been introducing the history and culture of
Korea to residents of the United States since 2005.
