Asia Society Korea Center, Seoul

Asia Society is an international organization dedicated to strengthening relationships and deepening the understanding among the peoples of Asia and the United States.  We seek to enhance dialogue, encourage creative expression, and generate new ideas across the fields of policy, business, education, arts, and culture.   Asia Society is:
 
● Where cultures converge and converse
● A forum for ideas and global networking
● A place to educate future generations
● An indispensable resource on Asia and its partners
 
As a world renowned, non-profit, non-partisan organization, Asia Society presents a wide range of public programs, including major art exhibitions, performances, films, lectures, and international conferences, as well as initiatives to improve elementary and secondary education in Asia.  Founded in 1956 by John D. Rockefeller 3rd, the Asia Society is headquartered in New York City, with regional centers in Washington, D.C., Houston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Hong Kong, Manila, Melbourne, Shanghai, and now Seoul.
 
 
Asia Society Korea Center
 
The Korea Center supports the global mission of Asia Society in (4) four ways:  First, as a high-profile medium for Northeast Asian collaboration and exchange; second, as a universal platform for U.S.-Northeast Asian dialogue; third, as an active gateway for engagement into the cultural, political, business, social, and technological issues that affect Korea, the U.S. and its partners worldwide; and fourth, as a catalyst to promote a shared future in between Asians and Americans.
 
In this connection, the Korea Center plans to hold a variety of activities and events such as:
 
● Conferences, seminars, discussions, panels, and events on various social, political, business, culture or media issues that affect Korea, Asia, the U.S., and its global partners.
 
● Receptions, lunches, and dinners highlighting specific issues.
 
● Special exhibitions of traditional and contemporary Korean Art.
 
● Special lecture series given by key academics and authors on various issues pertinent to Korea and Asia.
 
● Cultural performances of traditional Korean music and dance.
 
● Screening feature films and documentaries that focus on Korea and Northeast Asia.
 
● Educational and technology-based programs focusing on Korea’s competitiveness and interactivity with the world.
