At the end of 2018, when the community building movement in Ilan was approaching 25 years, the Ilan county government specially planned the annual exhibition "Fruit Exhibition caused by good families in Ilan ─ 2018". The venue of this exhibition is not the Bureau of Culture, but in the Lanyang Museum. Through the half-year special exhibition, through the Ilan Community track, Community View, Community Calendar, Social creation Project and Community Shadow, etc. Hope to convey the good home action experience of the people of Ilan.

Why is the social track of Ilan being carried out in the Lanyang Museum? Because the Rambo family and the Lanyang Museum have a symbiotic relationship, in the process of planning and construction, the Lanyang Museum has also made a voice in various villages and communities in Ilan through the network of the Rambo family. including visits to museum premises, community trips connected to museum premises, museum premises into the campus, seminars and exchange sessions, whether it is to take root in the education in the county, or to convey the charm of the Ilan people to the outside, showing the home dream of "Ilan is a museum".

The curatorial attempt of the Lanyang Museum also shows once again that "integration" is already the value of internalization of the Ilan people, and the Lanyang Museum still plays a necessary role in promoting local knowledge and the Ilan Earth Museum movement. as its unit mission said, "Ilan is a museum, and Rambo is the window to know this museum."

Qidong is a celebration that brings together local emotions, and the traditional arts are mostly played and participated by locals, but due to changes in social structure, there has been a professional front. In order to reunite the local consciousness, the sophomore Cultural Foundation hopes that through the emergence of the new celebration, let all community groups, school students at all levels, temples, etc., take the lead and play roles in the activities of "praying for Winter" (Photo Source / Haojia Special Exhibition in Ilan)

Write "Ilan is a museum" into the county blueprint

"Ilan is a museum" is not only the wishful thinking of the cultural people, but also has the basis from exposition to implementation. Lu Lizheng said that at that time, the county magistrate Liu Shoucheng generously included "Ilan is a museum" in the county administration blueprint, and all bureaus and departments also reached a consensus to include tourism and education. the overall construction of the museum currently being carried out in Ilan County is also based on this concept: Ilan is a museum suitable for living, learning and tourism, and the Environmental Protection Bureau and the Education Bureau promote "suitable learning", while the Tourism Bureau promotes "suitable tourism". On the other hand, the Lanyang Museum is suitable for living, learning and traveling.

Eighteen years have passed since the drafting, writing and implementation of the plan of the Lanyang Museum and the Rambo family. Lu Lizheng believes that it also needs to be revised step by step. "the key point is how to run Ilan as a museum. Now someone has to think about it, someone to change it, and someone to put it into practice."

Why does Taiwan need a museum movement?

As a senior researcher who has participated in the Taiwan Museum Movement for many years, what can museums tell you? Lu Lizheng said that museums can learn from ancient times, and it is as simple as that. I hope that Taiwanese can learn from the past and think about the future of Taiwanese. Similarly, the purpose of investing in the local museum movement in Ilan is to know why it is like this today. How to create hope for the future.

Although Lu Lizheng has retired from his post as director of the National Museum of Taiwan History, he is still like a missionary of the museum movement, sharing the possibilities of the local and museum movement with more people in the community. In the course of his interaction with his hometown Ilan, the original intention that has always been unchanged comes from his most fundamental belief: "hometown is a magical place to build dreams."

Ilan is a museum.

It's an idea.

It's an imagination.

It's a work hypothesis.

It's a job goal.

It's a work plan.

It is a dream to build a hometown.
