Maidstone Museum has been awarded £75,000 from the Museum Renewal Fund, a UK Government funded initiative administered by Arts Council England, to bring Japanese heritage to life and make our incredible collection accessible worldwide.

Coming soon: The Tōkaidō Way, a stunning new touring & temporary exhibition exploring Edo-period Japan through art, culture and travel.

Plus, we’re developing a brand-new digital platform to showcase artefacts online, opening up our collection to researchers, educators and curious minds across the globe.
