Warehouse TERRADA has always considered it to be important to educate future professionals involved in the restoration and preservation of artworks and craftworks. We have made a wide-ranging proactive effort?in this field, such as by launching a collaborative course in art restoration and preservation at Yokohama University of Art and Design in April 2017, and by establishing TERRADA CONSERVATION LABORATORY in our main office in Tennoz in April 2018.

With this three-party partnership, together with the other two organizations, we will operate educational and vocational training programs in Florence, Italy, which is regarded as home of art restoration, and encourage people-to-people exchanges between Japan and Italy, in order to contribute towards educating and producing future professionals who will lead the art industry as well as cultural heritage conservation. Warehouse TERRADA will continue to improve our art-related services.
