Descripción
Engaging in a diverse array of activities, including publication, cultural and historic tours, treasure hunts, community workshops, and immersive travel experiences in Keelung, is a key in our sustainable program. This initiative is designed to aid our hometown in cultivating a distinctive identity and fostering awareness among locals. Our primary objective is to draw more people to explore and embrace the authentic Taiwan that just a 30-minute away from central Taipei.
In addition, we actively participate in the documentation of the oral history to safeguard its rich cultural heritage. Collaborating with various local community development associations, we curate and execute historic and art exhibitions. Moreover, we organize public events to champion cultural and artistic endeavors, contributing to the vibrancy and identity of Keelung.

My environment was very stimulating (being surrounded by young people, getting to know an artist in residence, riding a scooter from one side of the coast of Keelung to the other to take videos, learning the tools for making a Tiktok reel) but also, at the same time, very relaxed. It was a privilege for a senior to have had this opportunity.

Since I like animals, it was also fun to play with 2 cats~
Thank you for having me, Mila!
