2026 Cultural Programs: From Experience to Insight
Korea in the Queen City (KQC) is a signature cultural program by Hands On Well, sharing Korean heritage with our neighbors in Charlotte through art, music, and food experience.
Director’s Note
Korea in the Queen City began in 2024 as a quiet effort of research and preparation. When we opened our first chapter last year, it was wonderful to see how warmly our neighbors welcomed us.
This October, we are returning for our second journey with a fuller lineup, built together through the precious partnerships we have cherished along the way.
