In conjunction with our exchange program write to us to find out about our Reflective Light Exhibition thats started in Masan with local Television and news Coverage of this special and what is turning out to be a very popular event.

Park Young Sook is also very proud to accept the Honorary membership offered to her by the committee and members of the EDAN art members accociation in the United Kingdom.

The Aggripa institute and the AA Gallery was founded by the artist Park Young Sook who graduated from Busan University with majors in both Maths and Art. However the powerful attraction towards art for Young Sook proved to strong to resist.

Students and art enthusiasts past and present enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in the unique surroundings that make Aggripa and the AA gallery highly successful institutes
The Aggripa institute still adheres to its main principal that is to  

 "Promote art in all its forms and to teach art at every level for all to enjoy"

The institute and Gallery have both recently undertaken an extensive modernisation program, and are now leading venues in Okpo and the province of Kyung Nam for art enthusiasts of all ages. Day and evening visits are welcome. Park Young Sooks paintings have proven to be very popular and are sought after by art collectors and Major Shipping companies alike.

                       
Art classes are available for all ages. Classes include learning to draw, learn oil painting, watercolours ( you will be taught how to apply this medium to rice paper), pastels, charcoal or even Korean Brush style painting, whatever you want to learn, you will find it at Aggripa. (See art Class time tables on the Art class page)
You will also learn to paint portraits as well as landscapes. 
Classes are always supplemented by visits of some of Korea's top artists who come along and pass on their skills to the willing pupil. Why not come along even for a visit and just enjoy the display in the gallery?
Many expats have visited the institute and left with the "perfect picture" either as a gift for a friend or relative or to remind them of their visit to Okpo and Korea in general.

Paintings for sale are also available on request by post to Foreign collectors or Korean exiles wherever they may be as a great and permanent reminder of their homeland.
