Korean ChuSeok Festival

I picked up Matilda from her new home in FW, and headed to ArtXContemporary in Seattle. Jeju, Korea Artist Koh Gilchen was having a show, and I was to translate his talk. I also found out that the Bird feather Artist Christ Maynard was also showing his delicate cut feather and Lee Dohee, Dancer who also came to congratulate fellow hometown artist from Oakland. About 35 people gathered to hear the artists. Koh who now is in Pt. Townsend for residency to produce his new work. He finished about 15’ rubbing of 19 century log canoe on black ink background with graphite rubbing. Stunning!!

It’s going to be sooooo exciting!!
We had a rehearsal for APCC 7th ChuSeok at our old building. The wedding party were all ready to do their part, and helpers are not far to help each movement. Our MCs are coordinating their comments, and of course we had to have our Korean dinner before all this. We also have 5 guests came from Korea bearing gifts and the poetry books included our first 6 Sijo winners name in it!!

Under this huge tent, the APCC 7th ChuSeok Festival will be happening on Saturday 9/23, 11-4. Are you ready to come?? We will be ready for you with Food, Entertainment, Information, hands-on!! All about Korean culture!!

I had this dendrobium for 3 years placing S window. Today I founded these beautiful flowers. Quietly without my noticing the buds, you surprised me. I brought you home because of your fragrance among those colorful eye catchers. I treasure your beauty!
I started recycling Korean dress project “ Piece to Pieces”. It’s taking more times than I expected. I have to dedicate a couple more days before I can finish!

I have to thank Korean Cultural Consul Park for making a trip to APCC today to check out our Korean projects. Thanks to Matilda’s 4 hours trip from her home to represents her husband Poet Kim’s outline of upcoming ChuSeok program.
My next stop was to Chun’s solo show reception at TCC GH.
So many friends were their to congratulate her and TCC staff were very happy to see so many came for the event.

South Koreans to celebrate Chuseok from Sept. 20-22 Chuseok, one of the most important holidays for Koreans, is just around the corner. Chuseok literally means “night with best autumn moonlight” and for us, it is a day as rich and relaxed as its poetic name.

We were there and so were many many people who sympathized for our canceled ChuSeok Festival today at Gig Harbor. Eunice came with her beautiful girls wearing Korean dress and handed out Event Book, Korean flag and ChuSeok special rice cake SongPyun. We promised next year to come back as we met new Mayor-to-be Tracie and others. I was ready for hot soup of Pho!!!
