On this program, repeat participants will enjoy endless ways to enjoy the museum experience through seeing, feeling, making and thinking in Ueno Park and at nine museums. On the day, “Art Communicators” will provide exploratory learning support. We will offer two programs: “Adventure Club,” which encourages art appreciation and adventure with different themes and destinations each time; and the“Kubbe Club” program focusing on observation and modeling, in which participants encounter the natural world and wonders of Ueno Park.
Students (elementary school first grader to high school third grader) who have Museum Starter Packs, and their parents/guardians.
*Free participation for children
Let’s set off in search of adventure to Ueno Park’s museums! On this program children encounter and explore the many wonders and genuine objects and artifacts to be found at the museums. Children go around the museums, carefully observing and appreciating exhibits according to a given theme.
