Adhering to the principle of "Setting Up Zhang Jian as the current school to teach, and knowing more about birds, beasts and trees", the museum has been exhibiting basic exhibitions of nantong regional culture, natural resources, garden history, Zhang Jian's achievements, etc., and has held more than 20 temporary exhibitions every year. At the same time, I took the initiative to integrate into the society. I visited schools, military units, enterprises, communities and hospitals through science popularization exhibition and "Knowing Nantong · Loving Hometown" tour. It cooperates with the Palace Museum, The Swiss Puli Art Museum and other domestic and foreign museums, and with the Nanjing University of the Arts and other universities to seek for depth and leapfrog development.
