Celebrate Korean Children's Day in Wheeling
On May 5, which is Children's Day in Korea, every child is celebrated by providing them the freedom to run around, play freely, be loud and sometimes be a little mischievous.
To celebrate this special day, the Korean Cultural Center of Chicago will hold two events to celebrate Korean Children's Day on Saturday, May 6, at 9945 Capitol Drive, Wheeling.
Event One runs from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., while Event Two is from 1:30-3:30 p.m.
Programs for the day will include Korean Cultural Center of Chicago programs: Korean games and crafts, Korean book storytelling, museum tour, Hanbok Doll Exhibition and tote bag decoration; Associates Class Experience includes art classes and, at Event Two only, Korean traditional dance and Korean traditional music.
Admission is $10 per child; free for accompanying parents. Parents wishing to participate in the program must register. If you have more than one child participating in this event, register them separately. Children of all ages are welcome. Register at bit.ly/2023KoreanChildrenDay.
This event is sponsored by the Overseas Koreans Foundation, Art Soombi, Chicago Korean Dance Company, Korean Performing Arts Institute of Chicago, PRUNAE Creative Studio, Gabe Plus, and Able Art.
