Yokohama Museum of Art

Yokohama Museum of Art opened to the public on November 3, 1989. It is one of the largest art institutions in Japan. With its iconic architecture, featuring the expansive space of the Grand Gallery, the museum is made up of a total of seven gallery spaces, as well as an Art Information and Media Center that holds over 100,000 art-related books, ateliers hosting a wide range of workshops for children and adults, and many other facilities.

Located in the international seaport city of Yokohama, the museum focuses on collecting and showing modern and contemporary art created since the late 19th century, when the port of Yokohama opened, alongside many special exhibitions. We hope you enjoy your visit to the museum, surrounded by the history and the new spirit of Yokohama.
