Our Mission

Our mission is to build and strengthen connections between the people of West Michigan and South Korea. We believe that a more culturally connected West Michigan is a stronger one. Since 2014, we've been pursuing that mission through community events, immersive language/culinary programs, the establishment of permanent Korean art installations, and by bringing South Korean musicians and performers to thousands across the state.

After 11 years of picnics, this one set the bar! We served 133 catered meals, which made this our largest gathering to date. â€‹Thank you to the Pure Michigan Orchestra for providing live music.

We hope to see you again next summer!

KCWM's K-Culture Club

K-Culture club is a new monthly gathering where participants watch Korean media, share written reflections, and engage in level-based group discussions led by Korean volunteers who practice English, while participants learn about Korean culture and language expressions. The club is free but accepts donations for future cultural events.

Korean Connection is a non-profit organization in Grand Rapids formed by people who share connections with South Korea through family, friendships, business, culture, curiosity, or history.

 

We support the exchange of ideas, understanding, appreciation, and support for the close historical and economic ties between the people of Korea, the U.S. and our own state of Michigan.
