St. Lucians will get the opportunity to learn more about the Korean culture when
a major exhibition gets under way from May 7th to 15th
2001. The activity is the collaborative effort of the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs and International Trade and the Ministry of Community Development,
Culture, Local Government and Cooperatives, on the invitation of the Democratic
People’s Republic of Korea. According
to event coordinator, Cedric George, Cultural Arts Officer in the Department of
Culture, the exhibition should prove educational as most St. Lucians are unaware
of or do not fully understand Korean and Asian art in general. Students stand to
benefit considerably as the exhibition can foster further discussion in the
classroom. The eight-day cultural exhibition will take place at the Alliance Francaise, Pointe Seraphine. An official opening ceremony is scheduled for May 7th and the exhibition opens to the public from May 8th 2001. |
