The Hwa Kang Museum of Chinese Culture University, officially named in 1971, is the first university museum with comprehensive collections of history, art and natural science in Taiwan. The main exhibitions were trans-formed into history and art when the new building of the Museum was constructed in 1999. It provides complete exhibition spaces and conservation surroundings more than ever before. The main collections of the Museum contain the modern and contemporary famous artists’ paintings, calligraphic works, photography of Lang Jing-Shan, Chinese antique ceramics, folk arts, etc. The art collections are of the maximum amount of Taiwan’s university museums. It combines research achievements of the University and social resources, not only providing services to the faculty and students, but also opening freely to the public.

Yo-Chang Art Museum was first opened on March 24th 2008, and is a unique part of the university. Our focus is on planning special exhibitions, maintaining and forging partnerships with other museums, public relations, marketing and other museum related consulting services. We also place importance on museum collection research and art education programs. Yo-Chang Art Museum hopes to enhance professional curatorship, update the quality of our exhibition space and museum service for artists. They have the opportunity to share their art works and talents in the museum space. This method of sharing also hopes to inspire museum visitors to know more about the creation and the aesthetics of contemporary art. The Art Museum looks forward to cooperating and partnering with artists, academic institu-tions and engaging in international exchange activities. We believe this will help public to develop a multicultural perspective and their critical-thinking.
