    PRESS RELEASE Attention: Members of the Press Fukuda Art Museum June 2019 Fukuda Art Museum Opens in Kyoto’s Arashiyama District in October 2019 The Fukuda Art Museum, a new tourist destination, is set to open in the Saga-Arashiyama District, one of Kyoto’s leading sightseeing spots, in October 2019. Striving for a Museum That Lasts for 100 Years Based on the concept of creating a facility that lasts for 100 years, our goal is to establish a museum that will convey Japanese culture, passed down over hundreds of years to the present day, to successive generations in order to foster its further development. The museum’s founder, Fukuda Yoshitaka, was born and raised in Kyoto, launched his business in the city, and remains active there today. Fukuda’s decision to establish a museum was rooted in his sincere desire to repay local residents and the entire Kyoto area for the generous support he has received over the years. A Harmony of Beautiful Nature and Japanese Art – A New Place to Transmit Japanese Culture Since ancient times, the Saga-Arashiyama area, home to the Fukuda Art Museum, has been loved by nobles and cultured people, and served as a source of inspiration for outstanding art. Today, the area has become one of Japan’s leading tourist destinations, attracting domestic sightseers as well as visitors from all over the world. By enabling viewers to enjoy the beautiful natural landscape along with works of Japanese art, it is our hope that Arashiyama will become one of the world’s leading sites for culture.
