YOUTH PROGRAM OVERVIEW
KCI’s Teen Summit Program is designed to empower and develop young leaders in the Korean community. This one day program aims to provide students from grades 8-12 with opportunities to enhance their leadership skills and foster personal growth. Through a combination of hands-on workshops, engaging lectures, and discussions, the program equips students with the knowledge and tools needed to be an effective leader. This program also covers Korean American history and culture.

KCI launched the Youth Art Contest as part of our 2nd Annual Bay Area Chuseok Festival in 2020. Partnering with the Oakland Asian Cultural Center (OACC), K-12 students were invited to submit artwork based on contest themes. Winners in four grade categories received prizes and ALL entries were shared with the community on KCI’s YouTube Channel.
KCI will host the 3rd Youth Art Contest in 2022, so stay tuned for details.
KCI offers a Kids Holiday Party in early December with multiple activities including Korean arts-and-crafts, mini-Korean food cooking, Korean storytime, and gingerbread house making. All activities are Korean culturally-themed and kid-friendly.
