Korean Cultural Centre Canada

The Korean Cultural Centre Canada is a government institution dedicated to strengthening bilateral relations between Korea and Canada through cultural programming and artistic exchange. Established in September 2016 under the jurisdiction of the Embassy of the Republic of Korea to Canada, the KCC operates as a premier cultural venue in Ottawa, ON, offering comprehensive programming that brings Korean culture directly to Canadian audiences. The Centre hosts and supports a diverse array of cultural activities including film screenings, exhibitions, live performances, festivals, and educational classes in Korean language and culture. The KCC's K-Cinema program features contemporary Korean films, while its K-Academy initiative provides cultural and language instruction for learners of all levels. Additional programming includes K-Food experiences, taekwondo demonstrations, and traditional arts presentations. Located in a prime downtown Ottawa position at 150 Elgin Street, the KCC benefits from proximity to Canada's major cultural institutions including the National Arts Centre and National Gallery of Canada, as well as Parliament of Canada. This strategic location in Ottawa, Ontario's capital, positions the Centre as an accessible hub for cultural exchange. The KCC actively collaborates with arts and cultural institutions across Canada to facilitate bilateral cooperation and provide Canadians with authentic experiences of Korean heritage. Open Monday through Saturday with extended evening hours, the Centre welcomes visitors seeking to deepen their understanding of Korean culture and strengthen people-to-people connections between the two nations.
