Meguro Museum of Art

The Meguro Museum of Art is a contemporary museum in Tokyo's Meguro district with exhibition spaces spread across four levels, including one below ground. The building houses permanent galleries, changing exhibition areas, and dedicated space for community-driven shows.

The institution was established as a public art facility in the 1980s with a modern concrete building designed by the architectural firm Nihon Sekkei. It has served the local community as a cultural venue for several decades.

The museum focuses on Japanese artists and their contributions to modern art in the country. Visitors encounter works that reflect different periods and movements within Japan's artistic development.

The museum sits about a 10-minute walk from Meguro Station and is easily accessible by public transport. Plan visits on weekdays or weekends, as the venue operates throughout the week except Mondays.

The museum features a dedicated gallery where local residents and emerging artists showcase their own work throughout the year. This space allows people from the neighborhood to participate directly in the museum's programming and exhibitions.
