Artworks, Architecture, and Space: Enjoying the Entire Museum from a Child's Perspective—Tokyo National Museum of Modern Art "Family Day Kodomo Mat" 2026 Report
Summary
The "Family Day Kodomo Mat" 2026 event was held at the Tokyo National Museum of Modern Art (MOMAT) from October 8 to 16. Now in its third year, the event is part of "Connecting Children with Museums" supported by the Adobe Foundation. In the galleries, "MOMAT Collection Discovery Team" offered dialogue-based art viewing with MOMAT guide staff, and the special feature "'Seeing' Stories" presented works based on narratives such as Salome and the folk tale Kachi-Kachi Mountain. The museum was filled with child-friendly touches, including animal footprints on the floor, and families relaxed on picnic sheets in the front garden, enjoying the entire museum together.
