Müze Evliyagil is an art museum in Gölbaşı with three stories and modern, bright design that displays contemporary works by Turkish artists from recent decades. The building includes exhibition spaces, a library, a film room, and an outdoor sculpture garden.
The museum was founded in 2015 by Sarp Evliyagil and opened to the public in October 2016. Its collection includes works by Turkish artists from the 20th century to today, documenting artistic development in Turkey across several generations.
The museum carries the name of its founder Sarp Evliyagil and reflects his personal passion for Turkish art. The exhibitions show how artists from the country have developed new forms of expression and pushed beyond traditional boundaries in recent decades.
The museum is accessible by public transportation and located in a quiet, easy-to-reach area of Gölbaşı. Visitors should check opening hours in advance and allow enough time to explore the exhibitions, library, and garden.
The museum regularly organizes jazz concerts called 'Müzede Caz', where visitors can enjoy live music within the exhibition spaces. This combination of visual art and musical events makes the museum a living venue for artistic experiences.
