Traveling Exhibitions (PDF:2.42MB)
The Japan Foundation continuously conducts the “Traveling Exhibitions Program” to introduce Japanese arts and culture to overseas.
The traveling exhibitions includes a wide range of exhibitions from those to introduce traditional Japanese beauty such as ceramic art, craft and Japanese dolls to those to showcase the reality of modern Japan such as contemporary art, photography, architecture and designs. Approximately twenty permanent traveling exhibitions are on the road throughout the year, appearing in over 100 art galleries, museums and cultural facilities
These traveling exhibitions are co-organized by the Japan Foundation and diplomatic missions abroad, with the cooperation of the art galleries, museums and cultural organizations in each country. We hope you will enjoy our exhibitions held in your country.
※The schedules are subject to change due to organizational reasons.
