🇰🇷 Korean-English Cultural Exchange 🏞️ Urban Hike | 한-영 언어 문화 교환! 도시 등산 🌲

(👇 See below for English description!) 다운타운 바로 옆에 있는 Don River Valley에서 아름다운 자연을 보는 것을 즐 수 있어요. 새 친구도 사귀고, 영어와 한국어로 이야기하고, 연을 보면서 즐거운 시간을 함께 보내요. 영어를 유창하게 말하는 분도, 영어를 배우고 있는 분도 모두 환영합니다. 영어를 연습하고 싶거나, 외국인에게 한국어를 도와주고 싶거나, 여러 나라에서 온 친구들을 사귀고 싶다면 이 모임이 딱이에요! **벌레 퇴치제와 물을 꼭 챙기세요.** **날씨가 나쁘면 다음주말에 갈 예정입니다.** **트레일**: Don River Trail을 따라간 뒤, Evergreen Brick Works으로 이어갈 예정입니다. 목적지는 Davisville 역입니다. 전체 경로는 약 9km이며 약 2시간 30분 정도 소요됩니다. 물론 도시 중에 있기 때문에 언제든지 트레일을 벗어나 TTC를 타고 귀가하실 수 있습니다. 이 코스는 잘 정비된 길입니다. 계곡을 빠져나올 때 해발 100미터 미만의 언덕이 하나 있습니다. **참가비**: 선택적이다 - 이 그룹을 유지하려면 Meetup에 연간 구독료를 지불해야 합니다. 💸 혹시 1\~2달러 정도 기부하고 싶으시면 감사하지만, 전혀 필수는 아니에요. **연락**: [인스타(@ryankw94)](https://www.instagram.com/ryankw94/)이나 카카오톡(ID: ryan.kw)으로 연락 주세요! * The Don River Valley, just east of Downtown, is a great place to enjoy some nature and get a break from the city life. Join us for a fun afternoon of hiking, speaking in both English and Korean, and making new friends. Whether you're a fluent Korean speaker or still learning, this event is perfect for anyone interested in Korean language and culture. **Remember to bring bug spray, sunscreen and water!** **If the weather is bad, we will postpone this event.** **Route:** We will follow the Lower Don River Trail, visit Evergreen Brick Works, and then follow Beltline Trail to Davisville Station. **The Route is about 9km and will take around 2 ½ \~3 hours.** Of course, this is an urban hike, you can get off the trail whenever you want and take the TTC home. This will be a relatively easy, mostly flat trail with a well-maintained path. There is one hill with less than 100 meters of elevation gain as we exit the valley. **Fee**: Optional - Unfortunately, I have to pay an annual subscription fee to Meetup to keep this group up. 💸 If you appreciate this group, I would appreciate a couple dollars to help me out so that I can continue hosting. **Contact**: You can contact me on [Insta (@ryankw94)](https://www.instagram.com/ryankw94/) or on KakaoTalk (ID: ryan.kw )

Grow Your Art Career • Conversation with KEVPOP

You know how to make things. Maybe you've always known. Maybe you figured it out over years of practice, failure, and starting over. Either way — the making part? You've got that. But there's another part. The part that happens after the work is finished. How it finds an audience. How it finds a home. How you keep going long enough to make the next thing and the thing after that. Nobody really teaches that part. I'm KEVPOP. I've taught community education courses and workshops at public and private universities. I've received thousands in grant funding. I've shown work around the country. I've spoken globally from the US to Indonesia. And the thing I kept hearing from artists everywhere, at every stage, in every room? *Nobody told me how any of this actually worked.* So let's talk about it. This is a free, candid conversation for working artists, emerging artists, and anyone who makes things and wonders what a sustainable creative life actually looks like — not in theory, but in practice, right now, in the real world. **We'll cover:** 🎨 How artists are building lasting careers right now — the paths, the models, and the ones most people overlook 📋 Grants, open calls, and residencies — where they live, how to find them, and why most artists never apply even when they qualify 👥 What artist communities actually offer — peer support, accountability, access, and whether the paid ones are worth it 🌍 Public art activations — how showing up in the world builds an audience over time 💬 Your questions — bring them. This is a conversation, not a lecture. I've been in those rooms and I'll tell you what I actually know. **This event is free and open to all 10,000+ members**. It's also the first glimpse of something larger we're building. More on that at the event. Come curious. Come with questions. Come ready to talk about the part nobody talks about. **Reserve your spot today.** *KEVPOP • 10,000+ artists, collectors, and art lovers across North America.*
