Jakarta - In order to enliven the commemoration of National Education Day in May, the Regional Liaison Board of Papua Province through the UPTB of Papua Pavilion at Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII) on Tuesday to Wednesday, 30-31 May 2023 held Yospan Dance Workshop.
This Yospan dance workshop is part of the series "Let's Get to Know Papuan Culture Closer" which is the big theme of this May.
Head of the Papua Regional Liaison Board Alexander Kapisa said that we continue to carry out UPTB efforts to introduce Papuan culture to people outside Papua by taking advantage of important moments such as the commemoration of National Education Day which falls this May.
"We continue to strive so people can understand Papuan culture and art by inviting them to visit our pavilion at TMII. After previously we held a Quiz and Writing competition about Papuan culture, today we provide Yospan dance workshop. Praise God both for quiz and writing competitions and Yospan dance workshops today are in great demand," said Alexander Kapisa
The efforts to introduce Papuan culture through Yospan dance workshops are intended to increase knowledge about Papuan cultural arts, especially Yospan dance related to the meaning of basic movements, music and clothing used.
The Yospan dance workshop was attended by 10 high schools in East Jakarta with a total of 50 participants. ***
