Nishiyama Art Museum

The Nishiyama Art Museum is an art museum in Nozutamachi with multiple interconnected exhibition spaces. These galleries present both contemporary works and traditional Japanese artistic forms across permanent and rotating collections.

The museum was founded by Yoshiyuki Nishiyama and opened on May 5, 2006. This established a new cultural center in the region.

The museum displays both contemporary and traditional Japanese art forms side by side in rotating exhibitions. Visitors can observe how modern artistic expressions exist alongside established Japanese artistic practices here.

The museum is open Wednesday through Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM. Its central location in the village makes it easy to navigate and access the exhibition spaces.

The museum building integrates with the surrounding rice terraces, creating a connection between agricultural heritage and art display. This physical relationship makes the link between the local fields and the cultural space visible.
