Itabashi Art Museum

Itabashi Art Museum is an art museum in Akatsuka presenting rotating exhibitions of Japanese art within a modern building. The facility sits adjacent to Akatsuka Park with its trees and green spaces.

The museum was founded in 1979 and was one of the first modern art institutions in northern Tokyo. This establishment marked an important point for the art scene of that part of the city.

The museum focuses on artists connected to Itabashi Ward, showcasing their works across different periods of Japanese art history. Visitors can discover creations that reflect the artistic development of this region.

The museum is about 14 minutes walking from Nishi-takashimadaira Station. The area has good accessibility and clear signage leading to the building.

The museum never displays permanent collections but continually rotates its exhibitions throughout the year. This approach allows visitors to always encounter fresh artistic perspectives.
