Dive into a creative and collaborative workshop designed especially for children aged 7 to 12. Guided by talented artists Viet-My Bui and Julie Choi, young participants will shape artwork and writing into a collective story, becoming young editors who decide on themes, storylines, and characters.
This engaging session encourages children to express their creativity through both visual art and storytelling, responding to group decisions and contributing unique ideas. It's a wonderful opportunity for kids to connect with Korean culture while developing their artistic and literary skills.
By participating, children will contribute to a picture book that will be launched in July, showcasing their collaborative efforts and creativity.
This free workshop runs on Saturday, 2 May from 13:30 to 15:30 at the Immigration Museum. It is open exclusively to children aged 7 to 12 years.

Participants will work closely with the artists to create artwork and writing that will form part of the K-Publishing program’s collective picture book.
