The “2025 Seolcheon Art Picnic,” a warm and welcoming celebration of community art and music created by residents of Seolcheon-myeon, was successfully held at Noryang Chungnyeolsa Shrine on October 25 and 26 in Namhae.

Following the success of the first weekend, the festival will return this coming weekend, November 1 and 2, offering visitors another chance to enjoy art, music, and the charm of autumn in Seolcheon.

From 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., guests can browse an exhibition of paintings thoughtfully prepared by members of the Seolcheon Residents’ Autonomous Association’s painting club.

On Saturday from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., the event will feature violin and flute performances, filling the historic shrine grounds with gentle melodies and an autumn atmosphere.

The event is open to all and free to attend, though the schedule may be adjusted in case of rain.
