UMAC Kyoto Meeting & Tour

Come to the beautiful ancient capital of Japan, Kyoto, for an UMAC meeting and tour of Kyoto’s university museums on May 18, 2015. You are also invited to an international symposium the previous day at the Kyoto National Museum on the topic of Internationalization of Japanese Museums.”

 

UMAC Kyoto Meeting & Tour

Kyoto has been called the “city of universities.” There are about 40 universities in and around Kyoto. About thirty percent of these institutions of higher learning have museums. The collections of these museums, comprising such genres as historical documents and art, are not only used for research and education but have also been exhibited and published. However, these activities are not well known to the people of the community.

Museums belonging to universities in Kyoto work together through the University Museum Association of Kyoto, founded in 2011. This network includes 15 of the 14 city, national, and private university museums, covering a variety of comprehensive, history, culture, arts and crafts, education and religions.

Join us on the UMAC Kyoto Meeting & Tour!
