The Manan and Seoksu Youth Cultural Centers under the Anyang Youth Foundation have collaborated with local schools to conduct youth cultural arts and environmental education programs.
On the 21st, the foundation reported that the Manan Youth Cultural Center held a traditional Korean music performance titled 'Dada Jeontong' at Bisan Elementary School on the 16th.
As part of the Korea Youth Activity Promotion Agency's 2026 Excellent Youth Activity Program support project, youth participants learned to play traditional instruments and showcased a performance they prepared themselves.
The event allowed them to share the experiences and achievements gained during their practice sessions.
Additionally, the Seoksu Youth Cultural Center implemented environmental education and practical activities tailored to the characteristics of each school.
In the 'Signboard' program, 189 first-year students from seven classes at Shinseong Middle School participated in carbon neutrality education and upcycling experiences.
Eighty-four youths from Shin-an Middle School and Anyang Seo Middle School took part in the 'Eco Dream' program, where they learned about biodiversity and explored the natural environment through ecological experiences in school forests.
In collaboration with the environmental exploration club 'Soleis' at Anyang Girls' Middle School, the 'Environmental Autonomy Activities' program involved youths planning and operating campaigns and experience booths for fellow students and local residents.
They focused on raising awareness about the value of eco-friendly food through the theme of imperfect produce and shared the importance of environmental practices in daily life.
Meanwhile, both institutions plan to continue related activities based on cooperation with schools and the community, enabling youth to experience cultural arts and explore environmental issues independently in their daily lives.
