As part of its ongoing educational services initiative, the Tokyo Fuji Art Museum organized a special 90-minute art appreciation class for 75 sixth-grade students at the Matsue Elementary School in Hachioji City on June 27. Five reproductions of artwork collected by TFAM were introduced one at a time, with students allotted three minutes to study each piece and then asked to answer questions on that particular work. They also took part in a game in which students attempted to describe a work through references based on the five senses, offering such descriptions as “you can hear people conversing” or “it smells of water” and “it seems cold.”
