Ewha Womans University Museum will present a series of exhibitions shedding new light on the history of the artifacts that have been donated to the museum since its foundation in 1935. The exhibitions will particularly focus on the period ranging from 1953 for which the artifacts and relevant data still exist until now.
The first series of the exhibitions features artifacts donated from 1953, when the museum was moved from Busan and reopened on the Seoul campus, following the conclusion of the Korean War, to the 1980s when the scope and content of the museum were actively expanded with the construction of a full0fladged cultural institution with modern exhibition falls.
The first period is significant as it defines the characteristics of the collections of artifacts, highlighting those donated by Dr. Helen Kim who played a central role in the donation of artifacts to the museum. The exhibitions focus on the history of artifacts donation that provided the foundation for the museum and expanded the scope of its collection. The exhibition will also feature pieces donated by prominent figures involved with Ewha Womans University and missionary in the early days of the Museum.
