At Naju National Museum, “The Story of the Big Jar Coffin” introduces Grades 3–4 school classes to the distinctive jar coffins found in the Yeongsan River region. The free museum lesson is advertised for April 2–November 27, 2026 during term time, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 10:00 to 11:30. It takes place in the experiential learning room. Sessions are designed for one or two classes totaling 15–48 pupils; groups of 50 or more are not normally accepted.
Children examine what the large burial jars were used for, study jar coffins and grave goods in the museum galleries, and then construct a paper jar coffin while imagining which accompanying objects might be placed inside. The activity connects local funerary heritage to observed artifacts and a hands-on exercise.
Teachers need to call the education team at 061-330-7828 first to agree on the program and preferred date. Next, submit the application stamped by the principal through the museum website or by email. A homeroom teacher must accompany the children throughout. The listing shows an application period ending October 30, 2026, while the detailed text also describes first-come, first-served registration until capacity is reached; confirm with the museum before sending the form.
