The Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum exhibition rooms are almost always full of guests admiring all the different works on display. This special program meets on Mondays—when the exhibition rooms are closed—to give participants a quiet, comfortable environment to learn in. With Art Communicators helping students observe and appreciate art through a conversational, interactive approach, museum curators and university instructors assist with everything from class preparation to in-class activities. School groups are also welcome to take advantage of the free shuttle bus service, which provides transportation from the school to the museum.
