Earlier this month JooRyung Kim BArch 95, former president of the RISD/Korea alumni club, hosted a reception for alumni of RISD, Brown, Parsons and Boston University at Arario Gallery in Seoul. She said she “felt the need for many graduates to get connected in Korea since many of them have no social support when they return.”

This is the first time JooRyung has organized a four-school reunion and she’s pleased with the turnout of parents and alumni of all ages. She intends to do more, working with top galleries in Korea such as Kukje and PKM.

JooRyung’s firm, JRK ASSOCIATES, sponsored the event along with Smoothy King, YeonHwa Suh, Arario Gallery and J&J Catering.
