PROGRAM INTRODUCTION

Work Experience
and Internships

Many local junior high and high schools utilize our work experience and internship opportunities. We provide opportunities to learn through hands-on experiences such as reception desk and other customer service work, a curatorial activity in which students act as curators to research and explain works of art and tours inside and outside the museum. Other activities are organized according to the curriculum and participants’ interests.

School Assignments

This program serves as a teaching aid for homework, assignments, free research and more. The museum is equipped with free Wi-Fi for onsite research. For works in the permanent exhibition gallery, visitors can read QR codes on the captions to listen to audio descriptions of artworks and artists. In addition, visitors can browse catalogues of past exhibitions and related magazines in the art library. Pamphlets and other educational services useful for independent study are also available. If you have any questions, please contact the nearest staff member.

SUN-KAN Rally

Stamp rallies are normally held during the summer holidays at three museums in Hachioji City. These museums include the Murauchi Art Museum, the Hachioji Yume Art Museum and the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum. Those who visit all three museums and collect stamps are entitled to receive an exciting prize that includes unique merchandise from each museum. This popular event is supported by the Hachioji City Board of Education and others in cooperation with Nishi Tokyo Bus Co., Ltd. Anyone is welcome to participate.
