Since its founding in 2017, GYOPO has championed the exploration of issues surrounding contemporary art, culture, networks, intersectionality, and social justice through free public programming and community alliances. In our space in Koreatown, across the city of Los Angeles, and abroad, we facilitate artist presentations, lectures, conversations, screenings, exhibitions, and social gatherings that inspire greater artistic, cultural, and political exchange.

Chuseok is a celebration of the harvest season and a time to gather our resources, take stock, and prepare for the road ahead. We are grateful to have the opportunity to do this with our supporters, whose financial contributions ensure that our public programming is always free and accessible to an intergenerational and socio-economically diverse audience.
