## About

A corporate foundation supporting artists through exhibitions, awards, and creative-space programs.

Hoban Cultural Foundation (호반문화재단) is a corporate cultural foundation that supports artists across generations, from emerging to established. It operates Hoban Artrium, a complex cultural and arts space, and organizes exhibitions such as public shows and award commemorations.

The foundation runs the Hoban Art Award to support veteran and mid-career artists, the H-EAA national open call for young artists, and H-Art. Lab, a creative-space residency support program.
