Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
Kyocera Museum of Art
Since its opening in 1933, the museum has been loved by the citizens for a long time, and the building is the oldest existing public art museum in Japan. Hoping that this traditional art museum will be inherited and continue to develop 50 or 100 years from now, the museum has been reborn as a new museum by adding a modern design while preserving the original design of the main building, which blended Japanese and Western styles, as much as possible.
