The newly opened Seoul Culture and Arts Education Center Eunpyeong will also offer its first educational programs this season. The Eunpyeong Center will feature integrated programs such as 'Art Play with the Body' and 'Such a Ripened Miracle with Family,' which organically combine dance, theater, and music. The Yangcheon Center will host 'The Art We Were Curious About,' exploring both historical and contemporary art. The Yongsan Center will present 'Healing Book Concert' with authors Kim Hyun, Kim Geumhee, and Park Jun. The Gangbuk Center will analyze Samuel Beckett's 'Waiting for Godot' and showcase live performances by actors through its 'Solsaem Classic Club.'

Song Hyeongjong, CEO of the Seoul Foundation for Arts and Culture, stated, "The Seoul Citizens Art School is a place where anyone can discover their artistic preferences and expand happiness in everyday life. We will continue to offer diverse programs so that art can become a source of energy in daily life."
