Finding Peace: 1st Annual Korean Heritage Festival
In partnership with Bainbridge Island Museum of Art (BIMA), Arts Humanities Bainbridge (AHB), and SolJoy, we proudly present the 1st Annual Korean Heritage Night in the history of Kitsap County and Bainbridge Island.
Experience gems of Korean culture in this showcase highlighting the best of ancient Korean traditions from martial arts and meditation to modern-day music, hip hop, and mindfulness led by local youth, families, and community leaders.
Also celebrating Mental Health Awareness Month, the unifying theme “Finding Peace” flows through this unforgettable evening as you ride the “K-Wave,” a phenomenon born from remarkable resilience redefining Asian American culture today.
Admission: Free! Donations Welcome
100% of donations give direct access to underserved leaders for wellness and mindfulness scholarships provided by the 501(c)3 SolJoy Peaceful Warriors.
