Outline

Ten Ways to Try Art — Expanding Your Perspective and Making It More Fun!
We have created ten different “tries” that can be enjoyed by everyone, from small children to adults — such as lying down on tatami mats while viewing the artworks, using binoculars or monoculars, or illuminating the pieces with a flashlight in a completely dark room.
Guided by “Torai-san,” a tiger-like navigator, visitors are invited to experience art in new ways by moving their bodies more actively than usual.
Both adults and children will be thrilled and surprised. Enjoy an eye-opening art appreciation experience!
