: 2024 Together Show information and Comments:
The "Canada-Korea, Together Show" is an art exhibition that commemorates the collaboration and friendship between Canada and Korea. Beyond artistic expression, it aims to develop and implement cultural cooperation projects together. The theme of the "2024 Together Show" is "Peace and Prosperity," symbolizing the understanding, collaboration, and shared flourishing of both nations that have resulted from over 60 years of partnership. This exhibition envisions a future where the two countries continue to thrive together.
Moreover, the event serves as a platform for cultural exchange enjoyed by professional artists from both countries and local residents. It aims to facilitate connections and exchanges, fostering ongoing friendship between Canada and Korea. In a departure from the usual trend of cultural exchange exhibitions being held in major cities like Toronto and Vancouver, the "2024 Together Show" takes place in Oakville, a beautiful suburban city in GTA. This decision makes the cultural exchange accessible to Korean immigrants and local residents in western Ontario, adding significance to the event. Consul General of Korea, Duk Hwan Kim, who attended last year's 'Together' exhibition, expressed pride in this fact.
Additionally, during the exhibition period, we plan to provide local residents with opportunities for art education and artwork creation through professional art workshops involving Canadian and Korean artists. Exhibiting the results in local cultural spaces aims to offer a platform for experiencing art and culture, creating a continuum from direct creation to display. All these activities are believed to not only contribute to the cultural enrichment and growth of our local community but also strengthen the close relationship between the two countries.

Rainbow Roof gallery는 문화와 예술을 지원하는 비영리 단체입니다.
' Canada - Korea, Together Show '는 캐나다와 한국의 협력과 우정을 기념하는 연중 미술 전시회로서, 양국의 아티트들 문화와 예술을 함께 나누고 기뻐하는 전시회입니다.
“ 2024 Together 2nd Show ”의 주제는 “평화와 번영”으로서, 캐나다와 한국의 61년 동안 지속된 두 나라의 파트너쉽은 이해와 협력, 문화발전과 번영을 나아가기위한 미래적인 목표를 갖고있습니다.
이 전시회는 두 나라의 프로페셔널 아티스트인 8명의 한국 예술가와 8명의 캐나다 예술가들 총 16명의 전시로 이루어져 있으며, 지역 주민들과 함께 즐기고, 느끼고, 체험 할수 문화 전시회가 되기를 희망합니다.
아쉽게도 대부분의 문화 교류 전시회가 토론토와 밴쿠버와 같은 큰 도시에서 개최되고 있지만, GTA의 아름다운 외곽 도시인 Oakville에서 개최되는 “2024 Together 2nd Show”는 서부 온타리오에 거주하는 한국인 이민자와 현지 주민들에게 쉽게 접근할 수 있는 문화 교류의 장을 제공하게 되어 더욱 의미가 있으며, 작년 'Together' 전시회를 방문한 김득환 한국 영사님 또한 이 사실에 자부심을 표현하셨습니다.
또한, Oakville Art Council 에서 지원받은 Grant를 사용하여 전시회 기간 동안, 전시회에 참여한 프로페셔널 화가들과 함께 Art workshop 클래스를 오픈하여, 지역 주민들에게 교육과 작품 창작의 기회를 참여할 수 있는 예술 전시회가 될것으로 기대가됩니다.
뿐만 아니라, 그 결과물을 지역 문화 공간에 전시함으로써 예술과 문화를 경험할 수있는 즐거운 아트 플랫폼으로 성장할 것입니다.
전시회에 참여한 모든 아티스트들은 기간중 판매된 작품의 15%의 수익금을 Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital에 기증을 할 예정이며, 예술가들의 영향이 지역사회의 도움이 될 수 있음을 보여주게 될 것입니다.
이번 전시회를 통해 우리는 아티스트와 지역 주민들이 서로를 더 이해하고, 문화적으로 더욱 풍요로워지고 성장할 수 있는 전시회가 되기를 바랍니다.

It is my great honour and pleasure to extend warm greetings and heartfelt congratulations on behalf of the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in Toronto for the Opening of the Rainbow Studio Gallery Art Exhibition, "Together 2024." This year, as we embark upon the 2024-25 Korea-Canada Year of Cultural Exchange, we celebrate not only the enduring friendship between our nations but also the dawn of a new era filled with unprecedented opportunities for exchange, cooperation, and mutual enrichment.
The theme of this year's exhibition, 'peace and prosperity,' resonates deeply with the values and aspirations shared by Korea and Canada, and underscores our united efforts to champion peace, democracy, and human rights globally. As we continue to build upon the solid foundation of our strategic and economic partnerships, events like these play a crucial role in deepening our people-to-people ties and strengthening the bonds of our friendship.
This exhibition, a confluence of Korean and Canadian artistic talents, highlights the potential for innovative and creative collaboration between our countries. It not only celebrates our past achievements but also points towards the rich possibilities that lie ahead. I extend my deepest gratitude to all participating artists for their invaluable contributions and for inspiring us with their vision, creativity, and passion. Your works not only transcend boundaries but also serve as bridges connecting hearts and minds across the globe.
Special thanks to Sungmi Kong, whose visionary leadership and relentless dedication have made this event a reality. Her efforts in promoting Korean art in Canada and fostering cultural exchanges are truly commendable and reflect the spirit of this year's theme.
As we mark the 2024-25 Korea-Canada Year of Cultural Exchange, let us look forward to a future replete with closer ties, enriched communities, and shared successes. May our collaborative endeavours continue to flourish, bringing peace and prosperity to both our nations.
Please accept my warmest wishes for a memorable and impactful exhibition.

Consul General of the Republic of Korea in Toronto
