The library will be offering a hybrid virtual/in-person Korean Lotus Lantern Workshop.  The workshop will take place at the library's meeting room from 5:00 - 6:15 PM on Thursday, October 6th.  We will connect virtually with representatives from the Korean Spirit and Culture Promotion Project (KSCPP), and they will guide us on creating our Korean Lotus Lantern, using colorful paper and wire frames. After the craft session, short documentaries about Korean culture will be presented. 

According to KSCPP Program Director Younhee Shin, KSCPP was formed to promote Korean history and culture to the wider world. “KSCPP, is designed to introduce Korea’s long and rich artistic history, the spirit of its people, and its cultural values. In appreciation for the United States’ support for Korea during the Korean War and in the years that followed, KSCPP has held 1,800 complimentary presentations throughout the country so far,” said Younhee.  The KSCPP is a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization.

This workshop is free and will be limited to the first 25 registrants. Attendees must be 10 or older, and children 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult.  Each individual participant must register.  To register follow this link: https://forms.gle/vV2aBiejHLR7Uf9U7
