Shizuoka Prefectural Museum of Art is currently presenting 'NHK Sunday Museum 50 Years Exhibition' and is promoting the show as a destination during Japan’s Obon holiday period. In a social media post, the museum invited visitors to spend time at the cool indoor venue while listening to audio guidance narrated by Fumi Dan and Arata Iura.

The museum’s post identifies the exhibition as a 50-year celebration of NHK’s long-running art programme 'NHK Sunday Museum'. No further exhibition details were included in the source text, but the framing makes clear that the project is tied to the programme’s half-century history and is being shown at the Shizuoka Prefectural Museum of Art in Shizuoka.

Shizuoka Prefectural Museum of Art, known locally as Shizuoka Prefectural Museum of Art, used its own mascot figures, 'Jukazou' and 'Jukachou', to announce the seasonal visitor push. The message was aimed at holiday audiences deciding where to go during the summer break, with the museum positioning the exhibition as an indoor cultural outing.

The post also points visitors to the museum website for details, but the text provided does not list exhibition dates, participating artists, loaned works, or the scope of the display. It does confirm that the show is open now and that the audio guide is part of the visitor experience.

'NHK Sunday Museum 50 Years Exhibition' therefore arrives as both an anniversary project and a current draw at the museum during a busy holiday period. The source material does not specify the exhibition’s venue beyond the museum itself, nor does it describe any parallel programmes or related displays.
