Chuncheon Art Festival
Gangwon-do(Chuncheon-si)

Even though the mottos were unfamiliar when they started, the Chuncheon Art Festival has been held in August for the past 11 years under the mottos of 'Voluntary participation' and 'Talent Donation'. The festival grew from 'Chuncheon Dance Festival' in 2002, where all of the staff and performers participated for free and like today didn’t charge for visitors to view their performances. The festival used to be held in Chuncheon Children's Center until its 10th year when it moved the venue to the Festival Theater Momzit (축제극장몸짓), which allows a wider range of programs from indoor performances to outdoor movie screenings and workshops. Since a lot of artists' shows are of a high level, the festival has become known as one of the best summer festivals in Chuncheon.
