05 Education Programs
In 2018, MMCA Education Programs strove to build on unique characteristics of each MMCA branch, while at the same time remaining dedicated to common purposes and educational goals as One Museum. To this end, MMCA worked to incorporate into its education programs of each MMCA venue: MMCA Gwacheon focuses on research and education and its main target audience of children and families; MMCA Seoul presents diverse trends in contemporary art and culture; and MMCA Deoksugung seeks to enhance understanding of art on a foundation of modern art. In an attempt to actively respond to the widening scope of participants and social agendas, MMCA ran programs for young North Korean defectors and out-of-school youth and launched programs for those in their 50s and above. Finally, the museum worked to expand its reach to more people to ensure that everyone can enjoy culture together. These programs include online programs, programs for people with disabilities, and the School Visiting Program to spread the museum's education content in schools.

06 Culture Programs
In 2018, MMCA ran cultural programs on a yearly basis, aiming to offer diversity in museum education programs and provide specialized and unique programs. The art museum ran the exhibition-specialized culture program on Culture Day and days when the museum is open late as a cultural event that expands the discourse on exhibitions at three MMCA branches through visitor engagement. It also developed online programs and community-based programs to expand communication with the public. The artist participation program is a participatory event organically planned and operated as an annual project, and reflects the characteristics of MMCA Gwacheon as the "Museum in Nature." The 2018 MMCA Festival - Art Road Climb was a particular success with more emphasis on education and participation, providing a platform for an art and culture festival for a total art experience embracing different genres and types of art, as well as educational opportunities.
