Saturday, March 5, is Korean Culture Day at  The Brookfield Library.

Children and Family Program will be running from 11 a.m. to noon. This program is suggested for families with children ages 5-11.

Afternoon Program for Adults: "Hidden Treasures of Korean Art and Modern Korea" — 1:30 p.m. 

Adults and teens will enjoy 60 to 90 minutes of Korean art and culture and the Korea of today followed by a traditional Korean meal.  This program is appropriate for ages 12-plus. Foods may include:

  • Kimchi — A vegetable dish, one of Korea's favorite foods and one of the healthiest foods there is.
  • Bibimbap — Rice with mixed vegetables
  • Korean Pancakes

Registration is REQUIRED. We have extended the registration period deadline to 5 p.m. on Thursday, March 3, hoping that we will have sufficient registrations to be able to offer Korean Culture Day.  Call 203-775-6241 to sign up, or register online.

These free programs are brought to you by The Brookfield Library and the Korean Spirit and Culture Promotion Project (KSCPP), a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating the public concerning Korea's unique history and culture.  

If for any reason you must cancel your registration, please contact the library at 203-775-6241  at least 48 hours prior to the programs.  As the KSCPP is generously providing food and beverages for both programs, they need to know how many are attending.

I would recommend supporting an increase similar to Ridgefield's which was under 2% (1.97%). If aRead More community like Ridgefield can perform at high levels with an increase under 2%, the Board of Education, in asking for almost twice that is openly admitting that they have installed inefficient management in school administration. Further, the sewer system on the referendum will require municipal funding since it is backed by the full faith and credit of the town of Brookfield and reduces the town's borrowing ability - the advertisement for which indicated it would not impact municipal funding.

So Mandarin Chinese won't be a requirement? Perhaps Manchurin Chinese? Cantonese Chinese? MongolianRead More Chinese? Which Chinese are the British speaking these days? Their empire stretched in the Hindu speaking parts of Asia but they aren't teaching Hindu. A quandry indeed.
