• Starting this December, the ‘Culture and Dream’ digital edition (E-book) is scheduled to be posted on the GOLFZON Foundation website

‘Culture and Dream,’ published with the support of the GOLFZON Foundation (Chairman Kim Young-chan) to help bridge cultural gaps, has marked its 15th anniversary.

With the support of the GOLFZON Foundation, ‘D-Books,’ a publisher based in Daejeon, has been issuing ‘Culture and Dream’—introducing local cultural events and artistic activities—since 2010. The newsletter is placed in high-traffic locations such as the Yuseong-gu Office, Doryong Sports Center, Daejeon Arts Center, and the Gongju National Museum, improving accessibility so that local residents can more easily access cultural news.

The 15th-anniversary ceremony for ‘Culture and Dream,’ held on the 30th at Art Center COO on the 6th floor of GOLFZON ZOIMARU, was attended by Kim Young-chan, Chairman of the GOLFZON Foundation; Jeon Mi-young, CEO of D-Books; and local residents who love arts and culture, who together celebrated the meaningful occasion and discussed ways to advance local arts and culture.

Meanwhile, ‘Culture and Dream’ is published bimonthly and delivers local cultural news in an engaging way through diverse content, including introductions to local art museums, interviews with artists, and exhibition guides.

Beginning this December, the ‘Culture and Dream’ digital edition (E-book) will also be available on the GOLFZON Foundation website.

Kim Young-chan, Chairman of the GOLFZON Foundation, said, “As the importance of arts and culture in modern society continues to grow, the Foundation is expanding opportunities for local residents to enjoy culture through a variety of arts and culture support activities,” adding, “In particular, we aim to provide broader cultural experiences to underserved groups who have limited access to information, and we plan to continue our sharing activities alongside our neighbors, grounded in ongoing communication with the local community.”

Since its establishment in 2010, the GOLFZON Foundation has practiced neighborly love by carrying out support programs in the domestic culture and arts sector and for socially underserved groups, grounded in a management philosophy of sharing and consideration. In recognition of its contributions through various support programs—such as the ‘Hope and Happiness Sharing Festival,’ a cultural event for children from multicultural and single-parent families, and the ‘Daejeon Drawing, Dreaming Exhibition’ and ‘Charity Golf Tournament’ for artists—it received the ‘Presidential Citation’ in the corporate category of the 2017 Korea Volunteer Awards.
