Cultural assets are excavated by archaeologists, and the excavated cultural assets are registered and managed by the collection manager. The ones that require special preservation treatment or restoration are taken care of by a preservation scientist. Then, the exhibition planner puts on an exhibition to showcase the cultural assets and tell various stories about them, and the educational researcher develops and operates educational programs to make it easier for visitors to understand the cultural assets on display.

You will get to experience various things that happen in the museum, while helping curators who protect cultural assets, and we hope this experience will give you an opportunity to understand what a curator does and become more familiar with museums.
