This week in the Mazza Museum, we welcomed a group of students participating in an exchange program from the University of Fukui in Japan! The students are education majors, here for one month, to experience and observe our educational system. Our Education Manager, Kristine, walked them through the galleries teaching them how we use the original artwork from picture books to promote literacy when students are here for a school tour.
