The National Art Museum of China (NAMOC) and China University of Petroleum Beijing will work together to establish an art education base, the two announced on Friday. 

NAMOC will become a base for the university's students to attend art lectures and exhibitions and to take part in voluntary services. 

Wu Weishan, a curator at NAMOC, said that art education has always been the museum's main mission and that the upcoming cooperative program will enable the two parties to communicate and work better to explore more approaches.
