Kushiro City Museum of Art, Art museum in Nusamai, Kushiro, Japan.

The Kushiro City Museum of Art sits on elevated ground in the Nusamai district overlooking the Kushiro River and the city below. Its collection holds more than 300 works spanning painting, sculpture, and ceramics.

The institution began operations in 1992 as part of a lifelong learning center, then took its current name in 2000. This renaming marked a stronger focus on art exhibitions and museum programming.

The museum displays works by artists from the region and offers insights into local creative traditions. Visitors can see how painting, sculpture, and ceramics reflect the area's history and identity.

The museum occupies the third floor of the Kushiro Lifelong Learning Center (Manabotto Nusamai), a complex opened in 1992. It is closed on Mondays, from December 30 to January 5, and on internal maintenance days. From JR Kushiro Station it is about 20 minutes on foot, or about 5 minutes by Kushiro bus to the Kushiro Sanjikai Hospital stop, then about 1 minute on foot.

The museum opened in November 1992 on the third floor of the Kushiro City Lifelong Learning Center, known as Manabotto Nusamai, under the name "Art Gallery"; it only received its current name in April 2000. The center also houses the Kushiro City Library.
