\u25a0 Purpose of the event<\/p>\n

“I feel nervous because I have to be quiet in museums” “It’s hard to go to an exhibition with small children”… We want even such customers to be able to enjoy appreciating the artworks at the museum without hesitation. With this in mind, we will be holding “Livid Saturday”, a day where you can talk freely about the artworks, further expanding the circle of surprise and joy that comes from appreciating the artworks. On the day, we will also set up a kids’ space and a nursing room, and have planned events so that people of all ages can enjoy appreciating the artworks. (There will be no restrictions on conversations between customers on normal opening days.)<\/p>\n

\u25a0 Overview Date: Saturday, August 3, 2024

[Permanent Exhibition Project]<\/p>\n

The permanent exhibition, which displays works that you may have seen before in textbooks such as Monet’s “Water Lilies,” is holding a “Let’s go find this work!” project. Each person will be given a postcard with a cut-out photo of a part of the work attached, allowing you to enjoy art appreciation like a game. You may make a new discovery by paying attention to the details of the work.<\/p>\n

[Special Exhibition Planning]<\/p>\n

The special exhibition “Naito Collection Manuscripts – A Microcosm of the Elegant Middle Ages” is currently being held. In addition to distributing pamphlets with questions and explanations of the works to help visitors enjoy them more, this year we will be offering a bingo game featuring some of the manuscripts. There are lots of interesting elements in the manuscripts. While appreciating the works, try to find pictures and initials and aim for bingo!<\/p>\n

All of these events are enjoyable not only for children, but for people of all ages, both first-time museum visitors and repeat visitors.
\n\u25a0About the National Museum of Western ArtThe National Museum of Western Art was established in April 1959 (Showa 34) as an institution that makes works of Western art widely available for public viewing, based on the Matsukata Collection (including masterpieces by Monet, Renoir, Rodin, etc.) donated and returned by the French government. The main building was designed by French architect Le Corbusier (1887-1965) and completed in March 1959 (Showa 34), and was registered as a World Heritage Site in 2016.<\/p>\n
