This educational program for the 21st century aims to provide new learning opportunities through partnerships between museums, universities, local government, and citizens. In this “Learning Design Project,” nine cultural and educational facilities concentrated in Ueno Park work together to encourage children and their family create their own relationship with the society through museum experiences and create an environment in which children and adults can learn from one another. Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum and Tokyo University of the Arts are the driving forces of this project.
A program of adventure and discovery that shows participants the enjoyment of museums and the fascination of Ueno Park. Children and adults will learn from each other through art appreciation, observation, and modeling. This program is open to all children, including children with disabilities.

The key focus of Museum Start “i-Ueno” is to forge links among “i-Ueno members” — children who have participated in i-Ueno programs and their parents/guardians and teachers — and bring them together to continue their access to Ueno Park. i-Ueno Special is a program that enable people to enjoy adventures at Ueno Park’s museums not just once, but on numerous occasions.
This program welcomes children from past i-Ueno museum programs, along with their parents/guardians, back to Ueno for yet another adventure. With participants traveling to informational showcases and “adventure-log” corners in the various museums, the area will be buzzing with a constant stream of explorers.
