Kampo Museum is a calligraphy museum with the theme of “Learn the calligraphy culture and world,” operated by the Japan Calligraphy Education Foundation to disseminate calligraphy culture. As one of the major museums that introduce calligraphy culture in Japan, Kampo Museum was opened in October 1995. The museum has a collection of as many as 25,000 items, which the late Kampo Harada, the founder of Japanese calligraphy, took more than 30 years to collect. They include calligraphy and paintings in modern China, as well as documents on Chinese calligraphy culture, and are displayed in turns in permanent and special exhibitions.
