K-Publishing: Kimchi and Collage, Mixing Cultures and Making Art
Saturday 14 March
Come along to learn all about kimchi in a free kids workshop at the Immigration Museum.
In this session Julie Choi, author of the picture-book Kimchi is for Everyone, will introduce participants to Korean food traditions. The children will then use collage as a medium to tell their own stories about taste, identity, and belonging.
The artwork, writing, and photographs produced by kids in this session will become content for a picture book that will be collaboratively shaped by kids throughout the K-Publishing program and launched in July.
K-Publishing: Kimchi and Collage, Mixing Cultures and Making Art is presented in partnership with the Immigration Museum with support from the Australian Government and The University of Melbourne.
